We headed down for the weekend; packed the 3 of us, 3 mtb's, all our gear etc and left Sydney at 530am Sat, arriving at Torquay at 330. Got something to eat, got hammered at the pub, got up at 8am (having lost an hour's sleep due to Daylight Savings) and then headed to Torquay airport - a client of one of my mates owns a helicopter and he gave us a bit of a joyflight down to Lorne and back, was awesome. Then headed up to the You Yangs and spent a bit of time at the Stockyards course, stopping along the way to watch the race pass through. Then we headed into Geelong and spent a few hours on the hill (the last climb) before heading back to Torquay, walking into our room just as the grand final (the important one, not the one where they squeeze into their little brother's shorts and jump all over each other) and at full-time, off to the pub again for a somewhat more subdued evening. Monday morning bought with it more mtb-ing at the You Yangs, time around the Kurrajong loop. Straight back into the van and back home, arriving at 9:00pm last night. Took a few pix too, such as this one of some ex-mtb fellow whose name escapes me....
