What a brilliant, brilliant couple of days out. Good riding by the Hipeleton. Fuck Yeh!
Huge thanks to Sam and Brett who stayed behind en extra 10 minutes at the feed station and attempted to relay me back to the main group.
Good fun riding with Jacqui and Moose (sorry Jacqui about my crap mileage estimates) but the thing that will stay with me most after that ride is hearing Jacqui's "War Cry" as we turned a corner a come across yet another long ascent on shattered legs. If I was that hill I would have flattened the fuck out after hearing that. Or surrendered. Or both.
Brilliant hanging out with Stompy, hillbilly, MA3K, Corny, The Brick, Aussie forumengers, et al. afterwards. Many, many, many rocks were thrown.
One large recovery burrito, a couple of beers, 11 hours sleep and a slow spin to the office this morning and I feel fine. Recovery burritos are the key. As messed up as this sounds, I'm looking forward to next year.
