Scribe's rap-up of Sunday, 18 Jan, St Ives to Warriewood - 96km   

 

18 crew marshalled at West Head after 41km via the Fruit Barn 'n Duffy's Forest.  Scribe snapped some pics, incl some good butts, but cocked-up downloading the JPGs from his digital.  Alas the failsafe Recycle Bin didn't work, not ending-up being snavelled in his Recycle Bin.  So no pics.

 

 

Ang' jagged a snag on the way back from the HeadLand.  Actually it was a small bit of sharp, shiny metal which caused a slow leak.  T'was a pitiable sight evidencing a woman contemplating changing a flat.  Fortunately Malvern Star 'n Bank Teller happened upon the scene and saw to it.

 

Ros came a cropper when her new fangled cleats didn't cleat the way they should and wam bam thank you mam, Rocket took a tumble.  Fortunately, Ros was OK.  But her new ladies treadley got chipped here and there.  Hence, Rocket wasn't a happy camper at Warriewood.

 

Everyone pissed-off in all directions from the Warriewood trendy set, where there are more cafes and young babes with bare mid-rifts serving Lattes, than you can poke a stick at.  Most of the group retraced via McCarrs Creek to take in some dulcet tones at a sun drenched Akuna Bay.  But the weather chilled-out.  So don't know how it went.

 

Around 12:20pm, Whippet, Publican, Malvern Star, Adam 'n Eve, Tyro Chris, ToothFairy 'n Scribe returned to St Ives, most heading for a recharge at Pattisons'.
