Well,
Here it is, TB has asked me to start the report off
It has already been an eventful afternoon :pinch: A call to me from Plindz around 2.30pm to ask if I can assist with recovering a stranded 990 from Mountain Lagoon Rd. Mr Squiggle`s ride partner`s ride has called it a day (maybe it knows of what`s to come tomorrow) :laugh: :laugh:A few calls back & forth and looks like our good mate Jason Barrett is on the job once again.
I am waiting till Jason finds the guys and puts the offer to them of me driving down tonite to retrieve the bike from Bilpin !!!Anyway, here are the Spot links for
TB, PTW & FLYING FISH (Leader group)

CRASH & STRUCKY (Sweeps)
http://share.findmespot.com/shared/faces/viewspots.jsp?glId=07QLxADPmunCYIzzZzPll04eysrB9JIyF
All the other groups will be in between these two Spot Trackers anyway.
I will update the situation on the 990 later,, maybe much, much later tonite once all is sorted :blink:
June 21, 2013 at 6:10 am #244074Its started already.
I know what I’ll be doing all weekend, watching the ride from the PC.
Maybe next time I’ll be ridingLet me know if you need a hand retrieving the 990 Eagle.
June 21, 2013 at 6:14 am #244075I`m waiting for a call back from TB mate once Jason reports the findings
I should be fine, presuming it`s just a drive to Bilpin load up and drive back with Merlyn,,,Waiting sux, I have the gear loaded, just waiting on “Go for Launch” if required to grab the trailer and fuel.
Thanx for the offer anyway mate
June 21, 2013 at 7:23 am #244076Spoke to Plindz again and he reckons the 990 had a huge backfire and that was it !!!
NO MORE PLAY :whistle: She will crank but no play :S
It should be in Lithgow now on back of a trailer,,,,Still waiting to find out if I get to freeze tonite or settle in in front of the heater and footy :laugh:
June 21, 2013 at 8:24 am #244077I get the heater and footy afterall….
The 990 is still at Bilpin, but he has another mate on the way to retreive him
That`s enough of the pre ride dramas :whistle:Let`s get on with the real thing now
Tomorrow!!!
June 21, 2013 at 7:58 pm #244177Pete, Amy and I are all suited up and just about to leave. Haven’t seen another soul here up yet :laugh: smarter than us :pinch:

The last of the riders departed about 15 mins ago, so Crash & Struck will get going around 9.30 mate.

June 21, 2013 at 11:24 pm #244081For the record,,,
TB and co skipped the first section of the route on purpose and hightailed it to Capertee for brekky to keep well ahead of the guns riders chasing them down :laugh:

June 22, 2013 at 12:29 am #244084Still no sign of the tracker for Crash & Strucky (Sweep riders) :whistle:
Rang them and they are on the bikes but service was breaking up,, so either he has forgotten to turn it on or it is not functioning correctly :S
