Time for something completely different. The Old Farts Tour organised by Paul Dowell has reached almost historic infamy. Without any events lined up and the the blessing of Hannah I decided to give it a go. The crew this year was is a great mix of riders and included Ritchie V, Grant S, Ross Mac, Garry O and Rob along with others which bought our total number to 11 riders. Todays stage was pretty short and straightforward Richmond to Murchison. The weather was fine but there was a slight headwind. The group lapped out the entire time and made reasonable time for the 112km. A quick stop at the River cafe for a late lunch/afternoon tea where I had a Cheese and Onion Scone. Then it was off to our accommodation at the Murchison Motels - very nice and more opulent than what I'm used to. I had bought my own food for tea but the others headed off to the Pub for a meal where the Hard Cock and Soft Cock awards were issued. I won the Soft Cock (SC) for having a mud guard on my bike - although I expect that the others may be envious of it tomorrow and the next couple of days as the forecast is for rain.
Hopefully I will have some photos to soon
