ridge hill road.  you know you love it.  one of the few chances that we can put a nice climb into a saturday ride so why not today.  the breeze should assist the return journey and as there will be a regroup after the hill, i expect that the group should all be together once the pace picks up back at bassendean.  i added a bit more titanium hardware to my jaw this arvo and am not allowed any vigorous activity for a few days, so will be sitting this one out.  i may however, be out on course with the camera.  there is now more titanium in my jaw bone than on my bike.  i will have to remedy this soon.

the sunday ride is the “tour of the forgotten climbs” where we will climbs some that we usually go down rather than up and some never done before.  we will start up welshpool but turn off before the end and continue climbing via lesmurdie rd.  pass though bickley valley and up to the actual observatory rather than patterson rd turn off.  i nice detour to the new climb called the chook farm before up to kalamunda a slightly different way.  then down the zig zag and up gooseberry just for fun.

i now have half the new kit sitting in my lounge room waiting to be sorted and am expecting the remainder to arrive tomorrow.  as such i will be distributing it on saturday at the coffee shop after the ride.  if there is any problems (i.e the rest of it doesn’t turn up tomorrow) then i will post a note and will not distribute till later as i don’t want to have to organise the distribution twice.  however, if you do miss the coffee shop, i am still on leave so drop me an email and we can arrange a time to pick your kit up.
