What did you say your name is?

After finishing the Freeway Bike Hike yesterday, I was sitting around enjoying the atmosphere at Joondalup when one of the organisers got up on stage to make an announcement about a lost child.

Apparently the parents were by the side of the stage waiting to be reuinited with their young boy, Socrates.

  • I managed to do a little bike riding onthe weekend myself. It’s been a while since I was last on a bike and I forgot just how much fun it was, well apart from the dodgy gears and the even more dodgy back brake.

    It also reminded me just how out of shape I was!
