Gulgong Classic

November 27th, 2008

It’s been a bit quiet on the posting side of things as the boys are in Gulgong for the Gulgong Classic comp.  They’re doing quite well and after the weather wasn’t looking too great at the start of the week things have improved with two tasks completed at the moment (there may be a third yet but Trent’s not returning my calls!!). It was a lot hotter in Canberra today with a storm later this arvo so hopefully the weather held out in Gulgong.

Special congrats to Peter Dall who made goal on Day 1 – one of only 3 people with a total task of 207.9km – a great result.  Pete’s currently in 3rd place overall after the second task and here’s hoping that he continues to post similar results.

Limited results can be seen on the OzReport at the following link:

Gulgong results after Day 2

I’ll update more as it comes in.

Cheers, Deb
