The ride exits the southern end of the SOB and takes a combination of back roads including Mill Rd, Greyhound Rd and Mumford Rd until a left turn onto Heaslip Rd.

@ Pat & RD6  will be good to see the Muddies / L / Crabbies whatever out North. Wilson has organised near perfect weather 19-21 deg with SE 11km/h winds.

You can change CWL from a maybe to a will attend. His lift for tomorrow is organised, a day trip from the deep south tomorrow, good weather forecast, should be a memorable ride.

@Mick I wasn't really concerned ;-)
Comment by Mick Adams on March 8, 2012 at 19:28

@Steven don't worry about the numbers they will be there. Last week had 16 accepted and still had 39 riders. A lot of people just take it for granted and roll up.

Comment by Steven Ellison on March 8, 2012 at 11:52

Only 41 acepted so far, 9 of them from the South! Still time to pick up on numbers though. I am looking forward to the ride. I will be driving down from Nuri for the ride.
