Riding conditions improved again this week. The weather was a touch warmer, the trails are drying out, the magpies were singing and the wattle is out in all its glory. However there were still a few reminders of the big wet we have experienced this year and Brett found one of the best ones when he strayed a little off line in a corner.

Mel has been inspired by her improved bike set up and gone hard on the training this week, maybe a little too hard so she took a breather at the Res while the rest of us completed the fastways section of the track. It took us a little longer than we thought with a stop for a puncture and a couple of happy snaps. Mel is also keen on lifting her fitness before the arrival of her new bike which should be any day now.
Talking of new arrivals, congratulations to Ewan who is a proud dad again following the birth of his third daughter Emmaline.

After many weeks of no punctures, we ended up with a total of 3 for the day, 2 for Rod and one for me. Mine was as a result of picking up a nail in sight of the coffee shop so I decided to run the last few hundred metres and order my coffee before I fixed my bike.
One week until the Beeripmo trip but before that there is a grand final to win. Go Pies!
