Re: Ken Dinnerville race entries open
Thanks everyone, I'm sorted for a lift now. Jo - I think you're brave enough riding today. Alex - it's ok, I'm pretty sure there's a homeless guy who sleeps in my car during foul weather. I don't begrudge him the comfort, but it doesn't always do much for the general aroma.

Re: Ken Dinnerville race entries open
Anyone got room in their car for me? I'm quite small. My bike is regular size though and he'd need a spot too.

Re: DHBC Road Time Trial Team/s for Calga TT
The soon-to-be-formed Women's Masters team are going to have a crack at this too. A lead up to the team TT. So it's Jo, Michele, me and the yet-to-be-announced 4th member. It'll be great to have a few DHBC teams out there.
