It's obviously cooler in Guyra than Brisbane.  Over 32o here, so any exertion not attractive.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Thank you very much guys, guess Chris couldn't help himself, Now preparing for my next one early November in Armidale, that should be a great day as well.

Thanks to the family for this as I wasn't even going to do this one this morning, but it was for a good charity
the Westpac Helicopter rescue service.

Took me 30mins to do the run.

Thank you again guys.


Pockey.  :KissBlow

Sport   oh yea no don't chase them any more  o:)
Uhuh ok definitatley not interested in any type of tap a ball...
I mean footy there is no longer any sportsman ship because of the money.
Cricket well I have seen paint dry faster.
And as for Tennis , I already have bad neck and anyway its just another Racket.
Now if it has an engine and hase wheels , floats or flyes  :Blow :nahnah  :butt :beer
Yea I know here they come again or look they are making another left hand turn.
Don't care will not watch any other sport ,here their results or enter into any other type of sport related conversation.
But that's just me and yes in my younger days I played Rugby, Hockey, Soccer, Roller Hockey and Speed skating.but my favourit was atheletics.fromm the 800 metrs to the 5 & 10 k runs..
Oh and had my own speedway race car in NZ.

Tipsy
I am lost and haves gone to find myself
Now If I get back before I return
Please ask me to wait.

There's no stopping you once you catch the vision.

I guess you've heard about Marathons.  Just a lazy 42 km...

At school I played that code of football where one player tries to push two players up three players bums.
Now I just do power walking and half marathons in my spare time. The problem is I don't have any spare time.

Guess that was a long time ago.  Do they still play that anywhere?
Is John Hopoate in the amateur league?     

"During a 2001 clash with the Cowboys, Hopoate, in an attempt to unsettle several of his opponents, inserted his finger in three players' anuses, the first occurring during the seventh minute of play. At the conclusion of the match the matter was immediately referred to the rugby league judiciary where a case was put forward from both sides on 28 March.
Hopoate claimed in front of the panel of judges that he was simply attempting to give all three players "a wedgie" with his fingers, denying he had done anything wrong and that he was "a great believer in what happens on the field should stay there".

Played AFL from 7 to 22 and 30 to 33.  Surfed,Sailboarded ,Scuba dived, snow skied and rode horses most recently.  Don't do anything now except help my daughter compete with her horses and ride the ST and doesn't my waist show it.

Was half tempted a couple of years ago to play over 40's AFL, thankfully after the initial rush of blood my brain kicked into gear.

They're not allowed to push now....the alternative game is where one player tries to push two players up three players bums, and two extra player push themselves up the same bums; they push they do! :butt
