Gav had has well organized and in hot pursuit of the lead group of 7 riders. It was seat of the pants stuff with the speed being above 45kph for much of the 15ks.
Gav broke clear near the end to win our bunch sprint Kent grabbed third on the line and Dammo found himself off the road but safe. Seriously hard work thx Gave for that!!!
The Smiddy huddle at the end of the day was huge riders support crew and billets involved. It was at this point that Sharky gave Kent 30 secs notice to run the huddle. It was an honour to do so and was a wonderful experience which I hope I did it justice.
A big community function with great food and fund raising activities.
Another legendary Smiddy day.
Tomorrow 240ks to Blackwater so another big day in the saddle. Almost midnight off to bed finally!!
If the riding doesn't get you, the fatigue will :(( sounds like bloody hard yakka.... Good on u all!!! Go Gav, good to hear you're going so strong!! Damo, you're burning out darl, get some sleep tonight :)) and to think there are five more days of riding??!!! You would def have done the huddle justice.. Good one Kent!
