Racing Roz Returns

There was a big crew out for this week's ride. The usual suspects were there in Tony, Steve, Brett and David as well as Phil who is starting to become a regular and may soon be ready to face his initiation test to become a fully fledged crew member and last but by no means least Roz, who is right back in the swing of things with a serious training regime and keen to join in the fun on our official Sunday morning crew rides.



The decision was made to head out our most popular route from Diamond Hill taking in Murray's track and the Fastaways extension and returning along the Great Dividing Trail to Spencers.

It was a very pleasant morning for a ride and the tracks were in great condition having packed down well after the rain of a couple of weeks ago. However there was a big shock instore for us when we got to Tony's/Steve's crossing. Someone had decided to smooth out the exit thereby removing any test of skill to ride it. Having said that the first bloke in our Crew to ride the extreme version was the one who got the angle wrong this morning and almost did a back flip into the gully.


The only other drama on the trail was a broken spoke for Phil and some fine tuning of my forks by Steve to get the rebound right after they were serviced at the LBS.

Roz showed that she can multi task by taking her own photo while riding along so we may have found the new photographer in the Crew and we can look forward to more photos on the trail rather than at Spencers.

Ride distance 40 kms.
