Our ride jerseys and knicks arrived yesterday thanks to the guys at Cannibal.  Jack, Harry and I went for an easy 60 km ride with Jo and Chris to try them out.

The highlight for the boys, as it often is, was breakfast which included the legendary Caramel milkshakes from Ritchie up at Alora at Bruce Ave, Paradise Point. as you do first thing in the morning!

We gave some Perth to Paradise tattoos to a young boy sitting with his dad and some mates – he didn’t throw them out which was a good sign!

Harry & Jack cuddle up in the new gear

Lovely morning for a ride – the guys are looking good tucked in behind each other.

We’ve just had our ride t-shirts delivered and they’re very nice.

Simple and easy and designed by legendary graphic artist Byron Hepburn (a mate of ours) here on the Gold Coast.

A fantastic fundraiser was held in Hobart last Thursday night – organised by Emily (Jack’s cousin).

• Some wonderful students from Fahan School volunteered as waitresses,
• the handsome Cameron Clark of METZ (restaurant/bar on Sandy Bay Rd) donated stacks of fantastic food and
• Aaron from Flippers, the legendary fish and chips punt at Constitution Dock, donated food and the use of his facilities to heat food up, etc.

It was great to catch up with so many old friends on the night – we appreciate everyone coming along and supporting this great cause.

$2,022 was raised on the night for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Australia.

Regards

At the very great risk of putting the mockers on ourselves, we’ve organised a Ride Celebration Dinner for Saturday October 11, 2008. You can book today right here.

Hope you can make it along.
