Yowie 2010

Gez and I came up from the excitement of the UCI Worlds to race/ride the Yowie at the You Yangs. Anyone who knows me or reads this blogage (why would you? but anyway) will know how much I love riding there. So when I was available to race, that I did. Well, until at the far side of the Currajong, it became evident that I had taken a wrong turn somewhere. Aargh! So upon finishing the lap I realised i had logged a 30k lap instead of a 33k lap. I told the timing crew and headed back out, forgetting my fresh bidon. Aargh. It's too long a lap to go without so I turned around, rode back and searched the start finish area for the one I left there, no joy. So back to the car mix a new one and back out on the course. Good one idiot. Never mind, just enjoy the ride. I found a great rhythm on the second lap, less back pain too.

The race was on though to get back to Geelong and watch the Granny and sink the beer, and that I did.

God of Thunder

Well...

The UCI world road champs in Geelong were fucking great!!!

The hard men and women of cycling on a great course, awesome weather and sharing it with many cycling buddies. Gold.

2010 - Year of the Magpie

Yes this generally is a cycling blog but it's also my blog and that means I'll put on it whatever i like (or love)...

And I love the Collingwood football club.

Congratulations to the players, coaching group and admin on their relentless commitment to achieving the ultimate goal in our most wonderful national football code.

A team spirit, game style and belief in one another that is the new benchmark in footy.

Go Pies!
