We look after nine locations over two separate routes, and this year we only managed to have seven of those locations up and running due to a few technical issues. Part of the issue is the fact that we have had to relocate our 2m repeater this year, and the new site does not cover the whole are as we would like.
For the fourth year in a row the number of riders was down, we hope this will improve next year with a change in the tour management.
The weather was extremely hot and humid both days, and shade was at a premium at the authorized rest areas. You cannot imagine the amount of water the cyclists drank on route.
I was operating from the Perth Road Village Community Hall. The ladies auxiliary from the local church sold snacks and coffee there, and they did a roaring trade. I hear the homemade apple pie was to die for.......I stayed strong and didn't eat any!
