7am - pouring rain 

11:30am - bright sunshine at Sydney Olympic Park.  

A persistent few ignored the early deluge and waited until after 8am to start their ride. 

The hardy 18 were rewarded with clear sunny skies and welcoming cake and chocolates when they reached the Banquet Tables at Sydney Olympic Park. 

Thanks to the ride leaders who hung in there - John, Kerry and Phill.  Thanks as usual to the social committee. 

Let's hope the weather is kinder for the next Big Rides Day, in 2026.

We got a strong response to the recent opening of the clothing shop.  27 items were ordered from 18 members.   Of the 16 jerseys purchased half (8) are going to members keen to get their hands on their first Bike North jersey.

A big thank you to all those who purchased this time around.

Unfortunately, due to minimum numbers of 5 for each item, some orders will not be going ahead this time.  So, if you ordered anything except a jersey this time you should have heard from Cuore to organise a refund.  If you have not been contacted, please contact Ryan @Cuore on 0414691845 or 93102740.

 

Please feel free to let me know if there are any issues.
