tonight is the night etc

Here we go !

Starting tonight from 6pm at York Lane bar for pasta (carb loading to the serious) and perhaps a coffee or a drink (for the more hopeful than confident) we are on.

Registration will be open from 6 and there will not be a queue then so come early and have a chat. Chris will be there from Omafiets to sort out any last minute bike dramas ( as long as these dramas don’t include things like “I’ve just spotted a big crack in the frame”

We will then move up to Observatory Hill around 8 ready to head off at 9 for Newcastle…

Weather forecast is ok…

Sydney area

Mostly cloudy. Medium chance of showers, most likely during the morning.

Don’t forget to try and find a little bit of cash for the tea stop at Mt White we will have the usual vast array of goodies from Kitty at the fruit shop and Aldi, and who knows if they have any left there might even be Panettone….

Less than a week to go

So with less than a week to go things are looking good. Dave has updated the map to include the Fernleigh Track extension and returning us to the reopened Newcastle Baths.

York Lane Bar is putting on pre ride dinner from 6pm and as usual we are putting on the tea and biscuit fruit cake stop at Mt White. Don’t forget to bring along a little cash as a donation as I don’t think we will have any other way unless we manage to borrow something…
