Well that was fun - Not!!!
There is a facebook group up here that I have been doing some riding with (Sports bike ish guys that ride way faster than I want to currently but that's ok we meet at the same place in the end) Last night was the regular Thursday night ride - I normally ride dead last so I am riding with how I am comfortable and not in any ones way.
Last night the organiser says to me "Can you lead please - I want people to stay together and not go crazy and the constant hard acceleration then slowing is getting old" - So I said I will be going the speed limitish I don't think that's a great idea. He assured me that is exactly what he wanted as we had decided to go to Childers for the ride and tea and we are going to go the highway.
So we start out and made it to the edge of town before I was dead last and saw no one again until Childers except the organiser that dropped back at the turn off.
We got to the Pub at Childers and I just said I have to go now I am riding back.
I didn't mind they all took off you ride how you want to ride - I was annoyed at being asked to lead - saying no and being convinced it was a good idea - felt like a complete wanker toodling along at the back anyway - if we had just maintained the status quo with me at the back I would ahve been fine.
Now the epic journey of trying to put google maps onto the Garmin has started - Apparently you can no longer convert google map data with out an API (which you can't get with out giving Google a credit card) so I found a work around and then it was an epic journey to actual get the map to load on the Garmin XT - WTF let you put a memory card in a device that you can't actually access from the device lol.
