Jock, Climbo, and the Mad Scot are around Erina/Gosford if I recall correctly. I think I'm the lone Novocastrian.

There's a handful of jerseys left Expat. At 100kgs, you'd probably need an XL

My mrs keeps asking me to take her out golfing so I'll have to give it a whirl and see what happens.
NZ golf club membership includes hole-in-one insurance, so that helps keep the wallet in better shape if you have a spot of good luck on the course.
Bad luck on the handicap there, your burgling days are over

Bidons cannot be passed to riders on the way UP a climb, those symbols show when directeurs can zoom back up with a cold one.
The "Xed-out" bottle means no more feeding until the finish.
