Hello Fellow Pedallers, 

Do you ever have a sore backsider after a long ride? Winston sent this link from the ABC, it may be helpful for those who come home from a long ride with a sore butt.

The Past Cycling Week, 

Monday: Ballina ferry Wardell, just 8 riders, must be too many people travelling to get a look at the world before world war III and a Trumpian USA. Thanks for leading Alan

Monday: , Just Col and Faye out today, just too many folks away, 

Tuesday: Ballina Town ride.  for something different, the sometimes less populated Ballina town ride had 11 starters, beating the rest of the week added together. It seems there might be something to those later starting times. Well done leader Kerry, 

Wednesday, nothing scheduled

Friday, nothing happened

Sunday: Interlaken, Vicki tried to get up a crowd for a good long ride, she couldnt get any takers, so she did it alone. Wald Hotel to Grindewald and return, seems to take a while on a train, so Well done Vicki, I'll find out later how she went.
