Just discovered that it's best to know the way back if you're going to get dropped on Watrefall ride. It seems that going to Cronulla on the way back is a bit further than planned. Fortunately the good burghers of that town are very helpful with their directions. My public line is that I deceided if the legs weren't quite up to the pace of the 28s they needed a few more ks to get stronger. Still... might avoid that route next time
By the way, what happened to the 25s who apparently didn't make it to the cafe?
Can Waterfall to Marrickville via Cronulla be right?
Doesn't the C28 have a ride leader or two?

Cronulla is a nice ride in its own right. Turn left off Taren Point Road at Captain Cook Drive and keep going all the way to Kurnell. Come back, turn left at the roundabout, go for a swim and coffee at Cronulla, then return. Takes a bit longer than Waterfall all up and there's no climbing, but it is a fine day out.
We sandbagged most of the way, Adam; then one of the guys got serious cramps and Dave the ride captain got him on a train at Kirrawee. Full marks. I rode back single as the rest had headed home. Not sure what happened to them - only three. Got back to the cafe; the remaining "28's" couldn't acknowledge another arrival (as is their want) so I headed home for coffee. Altogether disjointed. What is it with the 28/Middies mob and their social ineptitude? Some of them seem to have forgotten what a simple pleasure/achievement getting back after a long ride can be.Just discovered that it's best to know the way back if you're going to get dropped on Watrefall ride.
