While the wind is a bit quiet the boys went to Derby for a blast around the new trails.
We might be able to beat Jack on the windsurfer but he gave us a flogging in the bush.
Perks, Stew, Jack and me (Johno) plus a couple of ring ins.



















Sorry Stew just noticed your sideways action and who would have thought ten bucks could get you out of trouble with a slash in the wall of your tyre. Managed to ride a few Kms back to the car like this.

Did anyone notice you started with 6 riders and ended with 5. I suppose due to the average age it would be easy to forget someone

The Big Chook is also worth a ride. The track that is .... It's out behind the Weldborough pub.

You would love it up there Karen they have spent 5 million building all the tracks, showers, toilets and bike washing shelter
They even have a full time maintenance person employed just for the tracks.
At the moment they are building a 40km track from Blue Tier to Weldborough it's meant to be the longest in the Southern Hemisphere

The funny thing is Buzz the bloke missing was 28 years younger than me and we had to nickname him the "Betadine Kid"
We gave him the camera hoping he wouldn't fall over with it
He flogged us at though
