Cycling was the order of the day, we headed off on the back roads to Kingaroy, 30 some odd kilometres (horizontally). Unfortunately on the way we discovered some massive hill climbs, or more precisely, 'mountain climbs' which proved to be very character building & the horizontal distance was extended by several kilometres due to the insane vertical component. But, man, it was great coming down those hills. Sue, who had organised this trip, pulled out & returned to Nanango only 10k into the ride, Yvonne returned with her, leaving the rest of us to complete 70k of serious hard riding.
The hills (mountains) were so severe it turned into a 3 hour trip each way.
On return Wendy & Greg arrived, which brought our numbers up to 8.
Today we did the Nan.1. ride which had similar terrain but only 32k in length.
Only 4 of us completed the main ride today -: Carmel, Glen, Mark & Gunther.
Tonight we have booked to go to the pub for dinner, the first pub night in a long time.
Today is ' World Gin Day' so tonight we will partake in some G & Ts'.

It was a long boring ride to this point, so Carmel decided to take off her cloths to keep us entertained
