Met at Nelson's and we headed round to and up Merlewood Ave (the wrong way), across to Dyers, and on up. We intended to drop into the Sneaky 35 but discovered it's been stopped, finding a "Park privileges revoked" sign, so we bailed around to Shredzilla and bombed down that, me nearly losing it on the rocky section (cos Nelson was right in front of me and I couldn't see for the dust). Rest of the way down was sweet, bombing into the bottom as usual.
Up to the lift for uplift 1, and headed into Swinger's Party. Lots of fun, with me in the lead, cleaning it all up and enjoying it profusely. Then into Jandal, lovely floaty air all the way down.
Uplift number 2 and we headed across Summit into lower Gnarly dropping the rocks and the rest of Nun into ChoirOldDyers, with the intention of doing 3rd Base. For some reason it was closed, even tho we'd seen people coming out of it earlier on. Damnit. So, we decided on a Vic Park blat. Across the road and up the old way in to the 19th Memorial, then skidder, and into Spazza's, dropping down Sneaky Ridge - taking a couple of lines I'd not taken before. Dropped into Nu Bridges, then clambered up Hidden Valley, just about dying on the last reaches of climb, and out Old Skool for the finish. I was getting so exhausted by the bottom sections, Nelson was miles ahead.
