Unfortunately I can't make it next Saturday but definitely interested in future Kurnell rides. I will pass your invite onto Nick. Thanks.Colin, that was Andrew Belford and I this morning. Realised it was you and Nick once you had passed. There were 6 to 8 riders at the cafe. The BOM rain app showed showers clearing to the south. As ride leader for today I was unable to convince anyone to ride so Andrew Belford and I set off. I parted company with Andrew at Bestic Street went home, changed to a dry kit and Kerry and I completed a "dry" ride to Kurnell. Although I have two very dirty Lynskeys to clean. Glad we rode!!!
Will probably do Kurnell next Saturday Colin if you and Nick are interested - will PM you during the week.
Was that a new bike I spotted Colin?

Spotted Pete T, Michele and Dayna on the Cooks River on Saturday. They were part of a group called Mud Crabs who meet every couple of months to do a cleaning blitz of the Cooks River. Very impressive.
I suggested they put a post up on the forum next time they go to meet to encourage other volunteers to go down. I will definitely be one of them.

I think I thought your toot was from an impatient motorist as I'd copped a bit of verbal coming back from a solo jaunt in RNP?
I did spot Adam & Anthony going the opposite direction in the park.
Nice to know it was a friendly toot
Have a great ride,

After we tooted, my wife says that I probably just look like another anti-bike driver. We need some DHBC bumper stickers. Or I'll install a new horn, like the Tour de France race director has.

Spotted someone this morning exiting the Coward St Bike path from Tempe as I was about to enter it. If I had to guess I would have said John H.
Also spotted Justyn Griffin on the Tempe Canal bridge heading to work.
And, found Peter Bownes in deepest, darkest Mascot trundling his way to LaPa.
So many spots I should be a leopard.

Yesterday I spotted (all at different times) Joanne Troutman, Gonzalo Muslera and one other unknown rider at Centennial Park (my ten hard laps apparently didn't happen according to Garmin). This morning I bumped into Ben Croft on my commute and rode with him into the city, saw Bill Bolton coming the opposite way across the Pyrmont Bridge, then tonight, saw Peter Bownes walking in Marrickville; yes that's right he was not on a bike!

He also looked strangely like Ray Patton.
