Morning all
So the first report on the blog on the website….still testing so pls advise thoughts/observations.
The very high humidity this morning did nothing to dampen the spirits of our ever growing band of HMOTN. 8 in the traps at Gordon grew to 13 around the coffee desk at the B&T. DT recalled the days not that long ago when a damp morning would only prise 3 or 4 out of the cot. Nice one lads.
No incidents or accidents to report, partly due to our speed being moderated to within health and safety guidelines. The odd muppet out on the roads dodging, swerving etc – however we rise above such petty actions…..
Great spin home last night via Schleck’s Manly route – many thanks mate for getting us sorted. Unfortunately no Rabbit to be seen. Drastique doing the route on his single speed MTB earnt extra kudos. Watch out for this route getting more regular airing going forward. Departed SHBS 5.30pm and arrived St Ives 7pm. Thanks too for help lads with my flat last night.
Much fuss it seems on the regular outbound route last night with rumours of Clutters taking side streets in order to avoid the Flashboat home. Chippo pleading no knowledge. Inquiry launched.
Rumours difficult to dispel that new boy Colnago Craig has taken the kit and run for the hills – not seen since delivery. Let’s hope he’s not getting cheap copies done in China……
Recruitment really taking off currently – we’ve done up a new welcome email so ensure you grab email addresses when you see folks out on the road.
Departure times assumed to be the 5.15pm Winkie Special and the 6pm TSS Express.
Have a good one all.
Mark / Satnav
Rabbit safely home last night – he missed the meet but got swept up by Bucky and had a gentle spin home by all accounts. Still waiting to discover the secrets of the ‘Rabbit Run’.
Andy/Schleck
I was an hour late this morning having waited home for the air con guy. It took an extra 15 mins to weave my way through all the metal boxes brought out by the rain and school run.
Great spin home last night but I was seriously tired at the end of it. I think a Manly Tuesday and a Rhodes Friday is going to do wonders for my leg speed. Congrats to Sat Nav and Schleck who each knocked 30 sec off last week’s times up Allambie. Keep going at this rate you’ll be topping the Strava leader board.
Looks great Satnav and well done. I went soft this morning and took train to work when I saw the rain!

Strava has lot to answer for…congrats to the ever strengthening Schleck and Satnav…adding two more backsides into the bunch that just rolls into the distance at an eye popping rate of knots. HMOTN
Didn’t want to look silly (no offence Fish), so had to wait until BT revealed the secret backdoor entrance.
Don’t tell Chippo – he is a frustrated max blogger
Only 5 blogs and its 2.09pm. Where is everyone?
