The highlight of the trip was Sarah wondering out loud if we would be able to use someone's mullet to get our tentpegs into the ground...the picture of a headbanging mullet over a tentpeg did not leave us for the rest of the next two days...
Fortunatley the camping ground was soft enough for us not asking anyone for their mullet and we got our tents up just before dark, so that we could sit back in our chairs with a beer and watch other late arrivers struggling to put their tents up in the dark. Ah the joy of Schadenfreude...
Saturday was a day full of different activities - you could choose between a 3h or a 6h Orienteerieng event or the Points Series. I'm a pro elite in getting lost, so the Points Series it
was. We had to do a 6km Timetrial, a 10km Criteriumrace and in the afternoon we were off to a hill climb and a downhill race. Wicked concept, hang out time with oth
er people and lots of cowshit action on the timetrial...the machine had a wicked day out and won two of the races and Dave won the best cornering action with thumbs up! After pricegiving it was gametime - a rather interesting mix of games between some of the teams, the banging one (pic) went on for quite some time, I think they really enjoyed it...Day two was again full of options, we chose the 60km version of sightseeing the Coromandel. Again, a wicked day in the saddle. The machine powered away but her i-drive broke, so she had to pull out and doddle home, and the Thumb and I played tag team for some time until he managed to to break away...ah the testosterone...
All in all a great weekend and highly recommended - two great days of racing and playing on your bike, thumbs up!!
