So I'm just getting over a bit if a cold, 6th day is tomorrow, and I'm thinking about going for a ride. What do other people do, do you ride when you sick? Negatives/positives for the immune system?

My discussion was closed, hence this comment here.

John Rau, Attorney-General, recently stated that there is nothing he can legally do about the Eugene McGee case. Nick Xenophon said otherwise.

On Wednesday 14-Dec-2011 I received a response from Nick Xenophon's office.

I have posted extract from LEGAL PRACTITIONERS ACT 1981 - SECT 82 at

http://www.adelaidecyclists.com/group/lookforcyclists/forum/topics/legislation-1

Please read (2) (a) A charge may be laid under this section by—the Attorney-General; or

8 (a), (b). (b) is satisfied that the person is guilty of unsatisfactory conduct,

Make your own decision as to if you will write to Rau or other politicians. Keep any letter cordial and factual.

Hey Kara

Retro woolen jerseys

There is an order form for the AC jerseys in the "Shop and Stuff" drop down menu. Look for the Caps and Kit link. Final price will depend on the number of orders placed.
