Sad day... very big Ride...xx

We recieved some very sad news yesterday.. My very good friend lost her Brother on Thursday.. He was cycling home from work on the highway and hit by a car doing 110km per hour.. Fortunately he didn't suffer but as you can imagine the cycling comuunity here is feeling the loss really hard.

This morning was a ride to his parents house and then onto his house to offer condolences.. There was about 100 riders... and I felt honoured to be a part of the experience.. I have never riden with so many riders and it was a great experience.. I am pleased I could be there for my friend and her family and to be a part of a group of 100 riders is something that will stay with me for a very long time...

Please be careful on the roads...xxxx
