LEETON TO TEMORA – DAY 29

Today, 14th September, was a shorter day than yesterday and much kinder on the riders. There were more uppish bits today but uppish bits usually mean there are downish bits and they mean the rider can let gravity do some of the work for them.

We are staying tonight in the Anglican Church hall at Temora. I was clearly built in a day when it was the done thing to attend church because it is one of the biggest church halls we have been into. That said, the team has managed to spread itself widely throughout the hall and the snorers will have a lesser effect upon their nearest neighbours!

There has been time today for a bit more socialising over coffee than there sometimes is. The afternoon has also been used for catching up on a bit of washing and computing – several of us are keeping people at home upi to speed via a blog – and an early finish time helps in this regard. It has also been used to program satellite positing devices which help to make the escort roadie’s job easier and less stressful.

These recent blog entries have been produced in more of a rush than the earlier ones and photographs have seemingly disappeared! If you can see a pic in the recent entries, you might need to have your eyesight checked! I will endeavour to include something soon but I have been trying hard to get photos sorted for inclusion on a DVD for the team and it is all but impossible to get the files reduced enough to fit. When your rider gets back to your part of the world, ask to see some of the photos which have been taken of the ride and of things we have seen along the way.
