After three days of surfing, it's back to Canberra and back to the Dracs de la terra. Although in the new jersey that Phil bought in Hawai'i, there is a hint of the surf with us wherever we ride.
For an after work outing on single track, there is no beating Bruce. So we turned our backs to the sun and set off down Belconnen Way.
Storm clouds were brewing, but we weren't worried, not with the balmy late summer temperatures in the mid to high twenties.
The plan was a quick lap of Bruce followed by pizza and beer at the UC Bar. The trails were flowing and we were both in the flow zone, nailing bunny hops and hooking corners as we soaked up the fun on the full outer loop.
There was only one fly in the ointment, when we finished our lap and went in search of food, the bar was shut! Time to kick in plan B
Order pizza on the phone, then go in search of some liquid refreshment on the way home.
After a quick visit to the local supermercat, it was off into the sunset with Phil proving his domestique potential riding with beer in one hand.
