An Epic Weekend

A big weekend around the traps with the rain causing some worries early on Saturday. I'm guessing most of you would have heard about Ronnie's get off resulting in almost 20 stitches. The Golf course roundabout needs to be shown great respect in the wet as Ronnie was the 6th rider it's claimed now according to the local Ambo's. The big man said there was no sliding of rubber, it was just bang he was down.

The ride also produced plenty of flats, a good enough reason to miss riding in the rain for me ;-)

The Hervey Bay 100 was on over the weekend with a few locals making the trip. Some good times posted which is always satisfying for those that have done the right work. If I get some more details from those that made the journey there may be some more to come on this event.

The second Frenchville Frogs Tri was also held with the Fox making his debut! Sure as hell can't say he was tired as he slept most of the way up there lol. Perfect conditions greeted us with no wind around and a very flat ocean. 135 people attended the event proving just how popular the sport is.
The G came away with a second in the long course duathlon after pulling out of the Tri due to a shoulder issue. For those of you unlucky enough to witness the G enter cold water you would be familiar with his very gay flapping arms....I can't help but think this injury is in some small way related to this very disturbing action. John did well with a top 10 finish in the shorter distance Tri and not unhappy with his performance. It did seem to take it out of him though as he needed to have a little rest on the way home too......;-)
