Weekend mornings are a good way to get stuck behind a bicycle, unless you mean reeeeeally early?

I've done 6am runs where you get stuck for WAY too long behind someone, and 9am runs where you cruise for 20mins without a blockage! Seems to be kind of random. To be honest the pushbikes aren't really the biggest pain... as you can overtake them on any uphill segment, and without having to swing wide into an oncoming lane. The PAIN is the occasional sedan going slow for an extended period with no overataking zone. The WORST culprits in my experience, are those huge cruiser style motorbikes that do 40km/h, fill a lane, and don;t want to let you pass.

Like I said, I haven;t yet found any great benefit to going earlier rather than a bit later. We must get up there soon!!

Not today, I think!

Maybe we should just do an off schedule one next week, anyone up for that?

That was going to be my suggestion too.

Unfortunately I can't do next weekend fellas. But I am contemplating jumping in my car right now for a quick zip up Nebo and back by 8am!!!

Nothing like late notice hey :0

Need a little more notice than that!

Ok, roll call. Who's keen to go up this Friday? Weather is looking a tad better than last week.

I'm no mechanic, but it might help the car start. Just a hunch.

I should be able to find my keys by then.

Oh is that why you haven't been seen this year? Gee man, we would have helped out with the search if we knew...

Ok, I'm in as long as the weather doesn't go to sh*t. May or may not have Tash tagging along, not sure. There's talk of a Saturday night run on a certain FB group too, but I'd be happier to run tomorrow in a smaller group than Saturday in a larger one.
