64.80 mi in 04:35:22 hours at 14.12 mi/h on ICE Vortex FS. [Cycling] Vortex#36-South GA 100km Sunday ride with the Geelong Touring Cyclist group....6 of us on a nice gently ride with Werribee, strong NW'ly headwind on the way out, bit faster on the way back. Bob had a tumble as he drifted onto the gravelly verge and then as he tried to get back on the seal road he came off....nasty road rash on his left forearm and left leg, gloves protected his hands....bike looked OK, levers knocked, puncture on the front ut we fixed that in 5 mins...chain off, no obvious damage to Bob's shoulder, he only had a little way to get home (Lara) and he rode that bit OK but he will feel like he's been run over tomorrow no doubt....nice gouge in hs left forearm :-( We continued back to Geetown and a few spots of rain started to fall but we missed it :-) Good day ! Nice toasted Ciabatta in Werribee and good English Breakfast tea :-)eelong - Werribee - South Geelong. |

53.08 mi in 02:55:58 hours at 18.10 mi/h on Catbike Musashi. [Cycling] Musashi#16-Barwon Heads-Ocean Grove-Geelong-Home. Saturday morning ride with the crew from work - 7.30am start, thought it would be could as it was misty but quite warm....leggings too much....met at Blackgate Rd - really gentle cruise upto 13th Beach Rd, then the usual squirt along there fast and into Barwon Heads for a cup of tea....free chocolate muffin ;-) Then left and went to Ocean Grove along Grubb Rd to Portarlington Rd and into Geelong - Ash seemed to be struggling a bit and lagged behind. I lost the guys near Geelong after dropping the back wheel into a pot-hole (busy watching old git in a car edging out of sideroad) - big bang and gears mis-shifted a bit....then couldn't get low gears 1 - 5....struggled on a bit then stopped to have a look, cable still there so rode on for a bit and got lost in the surburbs of Geetown so headed to Breakwater direction.....got out of Geelong and then stopped and found that the rear gear cable had slipped in it's clamp so not pulling the derailleur properly, quickly fixed.... the chain popped off the front chainring twice when shifting from mid ring to big ring ? Needs investigation......good cruise back home :-) |

65.98 mi in 03:51:20 hours at 17.11 mi/h on ICE Vortex FS. [Cycling] Vortex#35-Blackgate Saunter 100km AUDAX. My second AUDAX ride - felt harder than the 150km GOR AUDAX to be honest....the run out to Moriac was good, struggled to keep up with Rick (Musashi) and no chance keeping up with John on the M5 Carbon.... The run from Moriac back to Grovedale was fast and smooth :-) After some soup we headed back down Horseshoebend and to Ocean Grove - met Brendon from work on the road - strong Northerly so the return was hard work, the last 20km was just hard into the wind and at times dropped to 20kph :-( Met another bunch of good people !! Good tea and toasties and great pumpkin soup, not so much cake this time around, I think all the 50km riders ate everything ;-) |

32.17 mi in 01:48:32 hours at 17.78 mi/h on ICE Vortex FS. [Cycling] Vortex#34-13th Beach and back - quick squirt - new cassette fitted. The replacement ICE rear cassette arrived, easy job removing the old bent & mangled one and fitting the new shiny straight one....on the stand I could get all 10 gears, woo hoo, it's been a while to have that many, it's been 7 reliably for the last 500km or so... The ride was good, sun shining, bit of a SE'ly.... nice average considering taking it easy, gears shifted well, little bit of tuning still needed and the odd mis-shift over bumps ?? |

37.82 mi in 02:14:39 hours at 16.85 mi/h on ICE Vortex FS. [Cycling] Vortex#33-Barwon Heads via Lake Rd. The weather looked grim but still no rain by 2.30pm so thought I'd head out for a ride. Bit of a SW'erly.... Some really idiot car drivers, lost of AirZounding today, people just do not look, they reverse without looking over their shoulders ?? Once clear of Torquay things got better and a quick squirt up Horseshoebend and then Boundary to pick up Lake Rd, then onwards to Barwon Heads.....the return into the headwind was challenging, gear still shitting me as they hop and skip like a barsteward, bent sprockets, grrr..... Got home to find warranty parts from ICE, new rear mudgaurd, new rear cassette & tool and some tubing..... I am swapping rear cassettes tonight :-) |
