Rap-up of Tour
de St. Ives, Duffy's Forest, West Head, Church Point, 'n back" - 76km
- 8 starters
6 of the team at Church Point. Alas, we lost
Harry aka KayakMan
when he carried-on to Warriewood after the rest of us "hooked-a-left"
into West Head.
The team, incl
Scott aka
PatternMaker
front/right seemingly appearin' tranquil,
with
Tornado pensively admiring the
views.
Tornado
is in deep, solemn cogitation over his "caffé".
PacificPete
is distracted.
Bill aka Compliance,
MediaMan
and
BeanCounter
are viewing the yachts.
Table service for the lads.
PacificPete
is adopting a low profile, whilst
Bill aka Compliance
renders himself "useful".
