July ride started so well...............

The weather leading up to our ride and forecast had been quite bad so it was the hardcore who turned up for this run up Mt Nebo, Samford village , Caboolture ,Mt Mee, Daboro and home.
We were greeted with a great morning but prospect of rain later in the day...hmmm could this be a problem.
We greeted a number of new riders 
Flemming


Jonas & his Ninja

With the weather forecast to turn everyone was focused on weather protection... especially our ride leader..Leigh (check out the video)


We enjoyed a great ride out of the city and up Mt Nebo, despite the dry morning the road was a little wet. Came across large groups of lycra lads ....they can pick up lots of speed down hill.


We stopped at a delightful and a little quirky lunch spot at Samford village.... we observed an interesting ritual during lunch...I thinking its think its the mating dance of the "Scalar rider G4 &and G9".
Pete and Dave just can't communicate




Well we made it the mountain safely...so instead of enjoying a nice lunch, dry  and around a fire till the storm passed at the Mt Mea Restaurant ..we ended up saturated and munching on a pie at the Daboro Bakery...a lesson learnt.

This sign in the loo returned a smile to our face though.
