Re: Gong Ride 2011 - Sun 6th November

Thanks Jo and Weiyun for your response. Not having attempted the gong ride before I was a bit unsure as to the procedure etc. and how belligerent the organisers would be with start times. I was definitely concerned about the heat and erratic/slow family cyclists. I wanted to get out early and treat ...

Re: Ride to Conquer Cancer October 12th/13th 2012

Hi Jo I have pre-registered my interest and am still to decide whether to ride. The more I think about it I believe I can raise $2,500 in 12 months. I am tossing around some fund raising ideas for work and donating the proceeds from the sale of some unwanted goods on eBay as ideas. I keep reminding ...

Re: Gong Ride 2011 - Sun 6th November

Here's where we'll meet on the day at 5:50am for a 6:00am sharp departure. Just to the left of the little building there. This is opposite May St on the Princess Hwy at St Peters. At Wollongong, we can meet on the right after crossing the finish line. My ride pack says I have an allocated start tim...

Re: What My Club Has Given Me

1. A raging coffee habit. 2. A drawer full of black knicks. 3. An obsession with the BOM. 4. An addiction to buying cycling products, and a never ending need (rephrase 'want') for a new bike 5. A house that resembles a workshop adorned by hanging wheels, bikes and bike products 6. A partner who is e...

Re: Invitation from Zeal of Zebras ride 27/10/11

Good job Stuart on the DHBC jersey issue.

Breakfast after the ride (including strong coffee) is penciled in - we will need it. Anyone else want to join Stuart and I for breakfast??

Re: Invitation from Zeal of Zebras ride 27/10/11

I agree - lets buck the trend and wear DHBC kit - besides big burly blokes like me don't look good in white jerseys. Nicknames - what a great idea. I feel like an imposter or gatecrasher without one. Noel (Nozzle) already has one. Maybe I can be the "flying accountant" or "the calcul...

Re: Adventure Rides 2011-6am 9th Oct RNP Audley in Waterfall

Sounds good to me - I'm in. I will go anywhere for a good curry (even if it means riding up some hills to get there).

I will just make sure I am at the front and not the rear of the bunch on the way home :D

What day are you suggesting Simon?

Re: Adventure Rides 2011-6am 9th Oct RNP Audley in Waterfall

What a great ride this morning - legs a bit sore now though. Not as sore as Pete I bet with his road rash from hitting the bitumen at Arncliffe. Hope you are OK Pete let us all know. The mist in the valley of the national park was an awesome sight for October. This was my first adventure ride so bei...

Re: Adventure Rides 2011-6am 9th Oct RNP Audley in Waterfall

I am good for 6am start. Water bottles etc. all organised. May I suggest one bottle with some sort of electrolyte drink eg gatorade. This is my first adventure right so I am "Excited" as they say :D . I will have no trouble being awake before the alarm tomorrow morning!!!. See you all at 6...

Re: LACC Criterium Racing at the Sydney Festival 16th Oct

As part of this event, Bicycle NSW is running its annual "Spring Cycle". The ride is 55K starting at North Sydney riding over the harbour bridge, through the botanical gardens, city and inner west to Olympic Park. With a ride back home via the cycle way it will be close to 80K. Maybe a ple...

Re: Gong Ride 2011 - Sun 6th November

Been a bit slack getting organised. :( Going to hit my family and friends for donations this weekend. Going to be tough to catch Andrew - sensational effort. If a few more club members join the ride we can not only eclipse $8K but have a sizable "red" bunch make its way to the Gong. Should...

Re: Invitation from Zeal of Zebras ride 27/10/11

I am also keen. I am Confident of riding at 30kph in a bunch on mostly flat roads. Should be fun, though getting to the Opera House by 6.00am is a bit of a challenge. Just need to re arrange my work commitments over the coming weeks to ensure a late start. Stuart and Nozzle - are you riding to the s...
