Despite the allure of the Red Hill Classic road race 20 turned up at the RV on top of Black hill where the Sou-easter was gusting mightily.
Ralph was late at the start but by following the foot prints followed us and eventually passed the recovery group after about 3 kms and sprinted on to catch up with the main group further ahead. After such a turn of speed perhaps he should graduate up to Tim's longer faster group.t .
Despite the wind and the deep soft sand for much of the way both groups had a good run, those who elected to take a tumble chose to fall in soft sand so no stories there!
Piero Granelli for his maiden sortie as leader and navigator scored a perfect 10 without a wrong turn or loosing anyone. Well done! As backup we had a long haired lass from Lancashire but her expertise was not needed. Thanks Cathy .
We shared the route with Tim's Longer faster Group who after an initial detour to gain distance merged with our group for the last few Kms.
