The double loop viewed from one angle looks like an infinity sign - and a few hills on the West HIghbury Road had us thinking that this was appropriate. Trees on the roadside must have saved us from the strongest of the south easterly, and gave us another 15 km/hr as a tail wind on the Highbury to Narrogin Road home run.
Paul did most of the work at the front, and Peter was impressively strong. James was a surprise - he struggled a bit on the first loop, then got into his stride on the second loop and had no trouble at all. Marius is the dark horse - a grin on his face and "I'm right" and he was there with the group the whole way. Dennis is getting his fitness back after a rest from breaking his wrist, and only fell back a few times.
The ride was 88 km and took us a minute over 3 hours. Not bad for our group, on those hills and in that wind.
Craig emailed to say he couldn't ride - something about grappling with a CPR dummy and the dummy won - by hurting Craig's back. I leave the story to your imagination!
