Race Day +1

So after yesterday's race Jenno and I excused ourselves from the Cycd Sunday ride to tackle the Brisbane to the Bay 50km ride with a couple of our neighbours. Being a low pace cruise ride nothing could happen, could it? True to form at around the 15km mark I get a call from behind that Jennos flatted. Nothing new there. At least his bottom bracket was silent. We group to watch him fix the flat just as the
Mobile mechanic pulls up in a Jeep driven by the guy from Operation Repo. Long story short. It takes three or four attempts at getting a tube to remain inflated in the wheel. The mechanic (same guy that built Dans bike during the week) eventually spotting a gash in the wheel and then suggesting that Jennos day was over and he'd organise the sag wagon to pick him up. I thought this was too funny but Jenno went into McGyver mode and bodied some patchwork that held and we were off. Off for another 15 km at least before we stopped again for another flat. It was the Ipswich 100 revisited! McGyver was beck at work and we were on our way again. Only 3 more stops to top up the air and we'd finally made it to the finish. I think we've convinced McGyver to invest in a set of GP 4000s
