    What an amazing day!

    Fantastic weather, fantastic friends and new people to meet as well!

    The bay riding was gorgeous, the water flat and blue. So many unfinished conversations!

    Tremendous thanks to Greg and Julie for organising, to corner markers who helped it flow, to Josh, the elegant tail end, to the Chelsea folk for their hospitality. What a terrific day! Successful, yes, memorable, yes. A fitting tribute to Phil!

    David, happy to take backroads from Geelong to avoid the freeway.

    Hi David

    Hi Derek. I'm reluctant to do the freeway from Geelong to Melbourne especially at that time of day. I had a couple of requests at the Christmas party to do the back route to Melbourne so there may be a small group of riders interested in this alternative.

    Hi All, late notice I know! I will attend. Joining at St.Kilda. Going down to Sorrento. Can I ask, will it be freeway back from Geelong? Cheers, Deg.
