Scribe's
rap-up of Sunday, 23 Aug, Cinque Montagnes - 17
starters
On a warm, balmy brill Springish morn', 16 crew
assembled at Grumpy's Cafe after 32km (from Nth Turra')
incl: ToothFairy, Kaza, Ant, Ned, Koala
Bear, Bank Teller, Yamaha/Linda, Adam 'n Eve, Heineken, Tornado, Kate aka
Flaxen, Pacific Pete, Whippet.
With Gene and Ann taking the short-cut back to Nth
Turra' from Berowra Waters Rd, our ranks were a tad thinner at our
2nd Nosh Stop of Pie in the Sky approaching midday after 69km from
Nth Turra'. However, after Heineken 'threw a shoe' at the ferry,
dutiful wife Sarah came to the rescue with new screws 'n bolts for Arno
at Pie in the Sky.
