Thursday ride today turned out to be very pleasant since the earlier predicted rain and winds did not eventuate. Four guys set off from Diamond Creek at 8.00am in quite warm conditions ( no frozen fingers this week! ) and were joined at Eltham by two Eltham members of the peloton. Coffee at Heidelberg, revelations of a future event by Ken, met up with some new acquaintances on the way back and return to Diamond Creek by (approx) 12.00am.
