Monday


Today was a long long day in the saddle. 11 hours door to door and I reckon 10 of those were riding time, circa 350km which included a great variety of torrain, climate and unexpected incidents such as the petrol station en route was dry thus a 40km detour and Green team losing two members for a few hours (they missed the turn and charged off at great speed in the wrong direction) and finished with a night ride into Morgan Bay.

Sadly another day with tales of accidents, the worst of which was poor Helen who hit a cow that charged across the path and ended up lying on top of her. Helen is now in hospital but all should be OK...less so for the cow that suffered a broken leg.
