I guess there was only 1 DHBC Group going? It was pretty good. I turned up at 6.15 after coming out of RPA at 2.30am after m...

Ride to Waterfall Sunday 1st 6.15
Every year I've ridden to Waterfall and back leaving early and traffic isn't too bad alongside the Gong riders.
Anyone interested, I'm leaving Mick Mazza's at 6.15am sharp.
Anyone definitely coming, pls make a note below.
Coming back from Waterfall its the usual ride and traffic.
