Chris & I rode over to Mt Macedon Memorial Cross today to join about 250 Ulyssians in a Remembrance Ride. This was our first 'big' ride with the club, and quite an experience. Once we got up to the cross they had a short service to honour the members who had 'ridden on' in the past 12 months, ie died. There were quite a few names from around the country, most of them had succumbed to cancer, heart disease or old age ( you have to be over 40 to join as a 'junior member')
Riding in a large group like that is quite slow, the 200+ bikes of all makes & models would have been quite a sight as we roared up the mountain & took over the carpark.
Sweet post...felt like I was there!
