Scribe's rap-up of
Tour de Windsor - 6 starters
Grant aka BeanCounter, Koala Bear, Scribe
and Smurf on Sean's tandem, Adam 'n Eve represented a lean team
who arrived at Macquarie Square Windsor after 48.5km. Gene 'n Grant cycled
back, with four of us pedaling 3km further West to aboard the 11:29am train to
Seven Hills, whereupon we took the M2 home. After having skipped the
scheduled Wilberforce, Ebenezer/Sackville loop Phil and Sean were full of beans
and let the tandem rip on the flattish M2. Phil took some pics, but
he left his camera in the seat bag on Sean's tandem, which was a silly thing to
do.
