October Training ....Countdown..
 
All Trails Team training for the Challenge.
Fabulous Five Bandits Preparations.
Thus far the Bandits have hosted a Mt Tassie King of the Mountain ride.PB and Al Pres to represent the FF.

Elvis and PB had a GREAT ride 2 October, about 170/180 km. via Mornington, Mt. Martha, Dromana....coffee at Rosebud and return via Arthur's Seat (Elvis loved that!), Red Hill, Merricks, Hastings, Pearcedale, (home for lunch) Seaford, where PB turned around and rode home AGAIN.   Some fellows are putting big kays into their legs.

Alistair has been businessing, putting faith on his September training investment

Wazza has had a few 20 km rides, most of the free time going into getting the website and work back on track

Nuggety Phil has been Mr Consistency and has quietly (and modestly) putting down another set of large kays

Clive has been pretty quiet, rumour has it that he has been hammering himself with Phil at the Uni spin classes.

....looks like Wazza and Alistair are going to be buying a lot of drinks along the ride ....

El Scrib is also organising a Velodrome session for after the ride. A sort of masochistic cool down session after 1100kms of grunt!!
