Long-ish ride at NF on Sunday


MichH

Recommended Posts

OK all of you, I'm doing a long-ish ride on Sunday at Northern Farm. I'll be starting at 7:30 and looking to ride for 4 hours. I know Saffa G and a few others are looking for a slower ride, why don't we meet up for a part of the 4 hours?

 

Dirt rider, I don't have a partner for this long-ish ride, wanna join me for the full 4 hours?

I know I'm not quite as pretty as DR and I don't have a new Morewood, but I'll be there on Saturday!

Wilddog is going to be at NF towards the end of the skills clinic as she wants to talk to the presenters and participants.

If she can ride with her injured wrist , we will be at NF early in order to do a long ride as we are doing Giant's Castle the following Sunday. This will include the area outside the farm.

If her wrist is broken she will drive to NF and I will ride from my place in Northcliff.

Either way I doing a long ride with as many hills as I can find.

Will post my option tomorrow if anyone wants to join me.

What do you mean broken wrist?!!

 

She tried to pick up my ego without a crane!

 

She crashed twice over the Easter weekend and used her hands as impact absorbers. The bruising and swelling went away but not the pain. She went for x rays this morning.
