Vic/Melb burner bash

Sunday works for me

OK gang, it"s next week! Found out today that part of the Forrest southern loop is out of bounds due to fuel reduction burning planned for this week, however Red Carpet and the Yaugher section are unaffected, so we're still good to go.

So! Meet at Forrest Brewery (pretty much the centre of town), 10:00am next Sunday, March 13th (not too early, 'cos it is a bit of a hike to get there, especially from my side of town). Rough plan is to do a Red Carpet loop to get the major climb out of the way first, drop back into town then roll the couple of km to Yaugher and mix up some loops there before cruising back to town.

Who's in?

 

[wkkie]

I'm out. Working...

 

[Plankosaurus]

Soooooo..... Eldest test positive this morning showing all symptoms. Might not make it! FFS 4 days booked in at Forrest up in smoke. (And of course missing the chance to meet some burners).

That’s ok. Moorey’s not worth meeting anyway so no great loss. But yeah. Bugger. Seems to just be the way of things atm. My kid has cases popping up in all the classes around her. It’s only time.

Moorey’s not worth meeting anyway

Hard agree. Even I avoid him.

Will check with the misso, but I'm keen

Aaaand now I'm a bit questionable..... Ran over my foot with a very heavy trolley while shunting stuff at work this arv, big toe bluddy sore. Will have to see how it goes over the next few days.

 

[fjohn860]

Fingers crossed Ducky.

I'll definitely be there

 

[The Duckmeister]

I can't feel bits moving in ways they're not supposed to, so that's a positive sign.

Might be just the handy cap I need to keep pace

Kayak more probably.

Unless the spill is really big it shouldn't affect where we'll be riding.

Damn, would've stopped mid race to watch that!

 

[The Duckmeister]

Toe didn't get too squished, so I'm still good for Sunday. Weather's looking peachy, temperature around 26°, bit of cloud and light breeze. Perfect.

So far it's me, @beeb and @fjohn860 - it's not too late to tag along!
