Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Jeff Stobie. Great bloke.

was a VIS memeber early-mid 90s.....with Goold, Iacuone, Priem, Drake, Smith, et al.


Strong, strong unit. Had the infuriating ability to train up after a lay-off for what seemed like a fortnight and then be able to inflict some serious damage.

Guy Green aka "Dad" (coz when I was young and excited he seemed really old...) will race and race and race. Has got some of the funniest stories about bike racing there are.....he'll prpbably tell you one in the bunch, then as you piss yer pants larfing, drop the 12 and disappear up the road.


Naylor is strong too.

I saw Guy Green at the Baw Baw classic a few years ago - when it snowed. I only know him to say g'day to, but I always reckoned he was a nice bloke. He said he'd driven up there during the week after work to check the course out! Pretty keen sort of thing to do, as between Noojee and the mountain would be 50km of the windiest, narrowest, most wombat and wallaby infested bit of road in Victoria.

I know Geoff Thompson really well. He's a diesel and wins a few vets races. Don't do turns over him or have him go over you in the group as he's one of those blokes that sprints over the top of you when he does a turn. Half the bunch will abuse him and he'll ignore it. Besides that particular nasty habit, he's a good guy!

Great stuff climbo. I normally pay cash to see stuff like that.

edit: is that a bactarian or arabian camel?

How was Symmond's wicket. Bloody twinkle-toes must've been in daydream land. Moved slower than the umpires do

Kotter ain't waterproof! If it's pissin' down, I'll be there to at least see who shows up. Anything less, and I'm going riding. If you can't make it, that's cool. My Cannondale gets packed last, so there's always next weekend.

The missus beckons.

Cheers.

Like he's been riding for 20 year with too much weight over the handlebars.

What sort of q is that? Of course we're going if it rains.

And because your a noob, you'll get to wash all the bikes down while we teach Expat how to drink beer properly.
