Post Script to the Posts

It is now over 24 hours since we all dismounted for the last time ... there has been some excitement for the team:

• a presentation to the Rotary conference by Graham, with the team on stage as well
• Graham impressed the audience by telling them the total raised by the riders over 3 years has been over $50,000 !
• a award to one of our riders for "Rotary District 9790 Sportswoman Award for 2011" - which is great recognition for cycling! The award was not given for navigation, it appears.

... but at other times the riders have been seen wandering vaguely around the conference , murmuring "ding ding" or "car back" from time to time.  They seem restless, and reluctant to sit down.  Whenever they see Margaret or Sandra they become much more animated, and only then do they begin to smile or talk.

Medical opinion is that they are clearly sufffering from  a disorder known as Bike Separation Syndrome.  There is only one known remedy for this disorder : get back on  your bike !  It is only 364 days until Ride to Conference 2012 - which will be Wangaratta to Moonee Ponds (no doubt the long way) ...   so,  Dear Reader/Supporter/Friend why don't you join us? - you will be guaranteed  beautiful scenery, great company, fabulous organisation and a really worthwhile cause.

Thank you once again Graham and Margaret and Sandra

from the 2011 Team,

and thank you to our generous sponsors

You have helped to ...
