Although the sign says that it was sunny, the first half hour was light rain which was good in settling the dust.
The flats started out as I took the bike out of the car only to find it had a flat rear tyre which I changed before the ride with an audience of a dozen riders watching me looking at their watches. Simon had a rear flat halfway through the ride which Neil and Jaman helped with after the rest of the crew took off. Rich had the third on 2nd Cummin and Max watch him change that ;-)
The fouth flat was not a flat tyre but rather someone charging down the gravelly fire track doing a big slide and skid towards the barbed wire fenced and then proceeded to over-balance, unable to unclip and ended up on their back like a stunned turtle while the onlookers laughed (a lot). So really the fourth flat was a rider flat - namely me - so no photos 'cause I had the camera.
Chickendrinker helps Simon change a flat. Its good to have mates.
