Super hot today, wet rags on our heads, vast amounts of water consumed and glad to be upgraded to a massive suite overlooking a park.

Hillclimb
A few words must be said about our fabulous Hillclimb today. The vintage cars ran at 70 km/h, an impossible speed to make on these twisty, turny uphill road. By the end, about 12 km, Fang had passed a fuel truck, two Bentleys and a horse. Partway into the event Chuck announced that he could not drive the car. We looked and a water bottle had wedged under the clutch pedal! A very long stretch of my seatbelt managed to dislodge it and we proceeded with a few seconds lost. The event was designed to separate the men from the boys. What about the women? Great fun, highly chancy and just up our valley.
