I’ll be there Stuart.

It’s forecast rain so fingers crossed.

I’m keen. I’m not sure what a ‘real’ NYE party is anymore so I’ll be at the square at 7 on Monday.

Hi Peter, given I ordered on the 25th Oct and the first list prior to that only had 13 names on it, we thought 25 caps would be adequate. Note also there were some committee changes in that time.

We weren't sure about the popularity of this item, hence the small order.

See you at Slowies.

JoTheBuilder

Yes, hoping to be there again this weekend, maybe after Slowies and Waterfall. I will only be able to carry a few so if anyone else will be there please let me know.

JoTheBuilder

Hi All, I have the first 25 caps. Hoping to be at the cafe this Sunday, 17th Dec. Otherwise pls PM me on Facebook to organize another time. Cost is $25.

Make sure you vote! I have done so.

Christian's advice is 'ride faster, you'll get home quicker'.

JoTheBuilder

I'll be there Jarrad.

JoTheBuilder

Caps are ordered! They will be $25. Just waiting on a date of delivery from Cuore.

JoTheBuilder

Hi Neil, looks great! What time do you think you'd get home?

JoTheBuilder

Yup easy...

I'm Jo Lees on FB if you want to message me and I can let you know my address?

JoTheBuilder

Hi Rod,

When is it? I have a BIKND she is welcome to borrow though I may need it back by Tour Down Under in Jan. We're in Rockdale but my husband goes to track on Monday nights.

JoTheBuilder

We've used Green Frog in the past. They were excellent.

JoTheBuilder

1. neilm all the way
2. JohnC most of the way
3. Phil D all the way
4. Peter B
5. Jo L until I get dropped (unless the Swans make the Granny in which case I will be in Melbs).

JoTheBuilder

Yes I'd be interested... I work from home every second week so I wouldn't be there weekly.

I had a Quintana Roo for my Ironman. Looked a little different to that!

JoTheBuilder

Hi Nick,

The order hasn't gone through as I needed consensus from the committee on the design.

JoTheBuilder

I lent (gave) mine to mikesbytes so am sure he won't mind you requesting from him if required.

JoTheBuilder

Exciting! Hope it doesn't conflict with 'The Chase'.

JoTheBuilder

Nice riding Paul!

Ummmm... how does Margo feel about you riding 100km a day?

JoTheBuilder

Course!

When I next get on the bike... So... Ummm...

JoTheBuilder

That's hilarious... One for the ages.

JoTheBuilder

I've received the samples from Cuore but have yet to see my esteemed committee colleagues to hand them over. Watch this space...

JoTheBuilder

Finally read this. Epic!

Fernleigh Track is awesome, it was my daily commute for a couple of years, but could have told you to ride the Pacific Hwy and avoid the coal loader area at all costs!

Hope you have both recovered.

JoTheBuilder

Hi Simon,

Only just noticed this but you'd be welcome to try mine out. Grey Hillbrick. Not sure on the size but will have a look, I'm 166cm.

I well remember that day too. Won't be there this year though as the beach calls. Enjoy!

I can help Marc but I will have Zoe so any task that is pram friendly would be great! 1. Marc R 0426-897247 - putting up tents/packing up tents/cleaning/crowd control/cupcakes 2.

I attempted to ride Middies 2 weeks ago and a Fasties rider was in the bunch having a ride with a mate. He said it was more a middies pace than 28's. The front riders were rotating quickly and it was pretty quick up Kingsway. I'm in no means a 28's rider yet (but hopefully soon) but I agree with Mar...

JoTheBuilder

Good write up Marc.

Incidentally that is Nathan Gerard on the bottom right.

Christian also has one of those jerseys but he would actually have to ride for you to see him in one.

I will hope to be there if that's ok but will aim to take the usual shortcuts on the hills where I can.

Stuart, you should invest in a Nutri Bullet for Christmas. Changed my life for tri training.

Thanks Jarrad. All done.

Will be lovely to ride all together again in memory of Nick.

JoTheBuilder

I've always felt that DHBC prides itself on 'participation'. Until people 'participate', you can't have racing or advocacy. I lived in Newcastle for a while and was keen to join a club up there but they all seemed to be focussed on racing and I didn't have the guts to join up. Fast forward 3 years a...

JoTheBuilder

No Dougie?!

JoTheBuilder

No doubt Dougie will be on here very soon with his plans...

I am hoping to be going though doubt I will be riding. Unfortunately (or fortunately) my best mate lives down there so accommodation is sorted for us. I am sure there will be plenty of people to share with!

JoTheBuilder

Yes, my mate is running that who coaches for CanToo. She actually sent it to me the week before DHBC's attempt and I had to let her know - too late!

JoTheBuilder

As Strawburger has said, I believe the rule reads something along the lines of: 'you must use a cycleway unless it is not practicable to do so'. Given that particular cycleway is used by young kids, and, in my opinion, has dangerous intersections, I think you could use the above argument. Not to men...

JoTheBuilder

So we saw the photos... But how did it all go?

JoTheBuilder

Anyone want to share with a screaming baby?

JoTheBuilder

Stuart, is there anything in particular I need to do to be a driver?

I won't be able to ride but can potentially do support.

JoTheBuilder

Great photos Marc.

JoTheBuilder

Yup, I'd look at Bicycle Market and Triathlon Marketplace.

Please don't get a Reid...

Derek Wolfenden has done this a couple of times I believe. You'll have to get in early next year! Looks like a great ride.

JoTheBuilder

Bummer - missed out! They look great this year (as they do every year!).

We might need to consider a couple of maternity shirts next time.

JoTheBuilder

Hi Paul,

Glad to hear you're on the mend and hopefully the bike heals well.

Very pertinent notes in your post and a reminder to everyone that we put a 'Tip of the Month' in our monthly newsletters that often covers some of the above. So please read.

29/025/2016 Update: well, we've only got four orders. We need 10 to get the price to a reasonable point. Talk up the order to your friends and down at the track people! BTW Cuore have these 'two piece' skinsuits that are one piece at the back but 'open' at the front. It's like having a normal jerse...

JoTheBuilder

I believe the law says that cyclists are to use a bike lane 'unless it is impracticable to do so'. Those are the words that will be under scrutiny if one was to be fined for not using a cycleway.

JoTheBuilder

How did you go with the road side wee?

Good luck! Look forward to seeing updates.

Could I take P then please!

JoTheBuilder

Christian and I do not need accommodation thank you.

JoTheBuilder

Great morning out! Thank you for coming all.

JoTheBuilder

Ha! Love this.

I reported the 'bump' on Olala via 'Snap Send Solve' last week after Nick's bingle. If someone can please check on hills tomorrow whether it has been fixed? I believe Peter Bownes knows where it is.

1 Point: JoTB

JoTheBuilder

Consensus is to drive up and meet at Bobbo bakery at 630. I'll be parking in the carpark behind the Bakery just off Bobbin Head Rd.

JoTheBuilder

Phil D and I are thinking of doing 4 Gorges on Sunday. At this stage we're undecided on whether to ride up (leaving approx 6am) and catch a train home from Hornsby home or drive up and park at Turramurra. This will be approx 28's ride. Hill climbing at your own pace, we will re group at the top of t...

JoTheBuilder

Christian and I would also like to share a place.

Phil, we may have room!

JoTheBuilder

Thanks Antony!

JoTheBuilder

Please note Slide the City is on this weekend at Centennial Park. Grand Drive will remain open but the organisers are expecting some congestion.

Those attending Saturday Slowies please exercise caution.

JoTheBuilder

Great thank you Dougie! Looking forward to another cracking week in Radelaide.

We will be in for most of that. Question mark over Willunga this year as my mates have a holiday house in Victor Harbor so we might hole up there for the night after the BUPA ride.

Grades are A-E with $3000 worth of prizes. Entry is open via the Cycling NSW entry portal. More info at their Facebook event ...

JoTheBuilder

You'll have to defer to Todd on that one Neil but I daresay it will go the normal way

JoTheBuilder

I may or may not want to do the La Pa ride now! [emoji15] I'd forgotten about that. But given we'll all be at the cafe at 630 I'm sure we can organise ourselves appropriately.

JoTheBuilder

I'll be there and happy to help out for the seniors. Can possibly help with the juniors but driving home from Dubbo so not sure what time we'll be back in Sydney.

JoTheBuilder

Hi All, As many of you know, we traditionally run a Christmas Hills ride on Christmas Day before we all go off to over indulge. Stuart is usually the instigator but unfortunately is laid low by injury this year. We will be leaving Marrickville Square at 630 and go the Thursday hills route which runs...

Spotted Paul Mayson on Cleveland and Raph on Wilson St this morning. Both coming from the Hills ride?

I'm keen... Love Orange. Not sure how much I'll love it if I do this though.

JoTheBuilder

So if cyclists have to pay for the roads, do surfers have to pay for water protection?

Incidentally, I struggle to see how 'Steve Kokkinis' can have the QOM up Livingstone Rd.

I have a Hillbrick he is welcome to borrow. It is smaller than a 54 sorry (think it is a 52?) but the offer is there. It will need a saddle.

Mind if I start a new thread? It's a different date this year.

Only one week to go before this begins. I'm sure we can get a few more members on board! It all links to Strava so minimal work required.
