LOL Hitchy,
Hell Ride...Hell NO!! I've ridden it a few times and don't feel comfortable with this pack. It's a little too agressive to other road users for my liking. Having said that I will be riding with the 'Brumbies' group on Sunday Morning. I pick them up at the Black Rock clock tower at 7.40am and ride to Frankston,up the hill and back to Sandy. All up about 65k's at usually a healthy pace of 31 - 33 kph.
BTW, you forgot to mention the TV with the remote valcroed onto the handlebars to change channels...
