CANCELLED: We’ve had a few riders opt out for tomorrow so apologies all, we will cancel the ride.

WEATHER UPDATE:
Hi Everyone,

the weather gods are not being kind to us lately…it looks like a storm is predicted right for the time we will be riding tomorrow morning.
I also have some injury issues I am dealing with and can’t afford to get wet/cold (broken rib).

I will keep an eye on the weather, but if you are NOT going tomorrow please update on Team App. If you have pre-purchased a ticket and the ride doesn’t go ahead I would encourage you to go anyway because you CAN’T waste your ticket. I will update Team App by 8.30am tomorrow and hopefully we will still get to go!

PLEASE ENSURE YOU PRE-PURCHASE TICKETS FOR THE EXHIBITION AT: https://www.ngv.vic.gov.au/view-tickets/hokusai/10455

Your Ride Leader is Tina 0412 993 650, all enquiries for this ride to Tina. Cancellation of the ride due to weather will be made via Team App

In remembrance of Hiroshima Day and our friends in Hiroshima…

The Thirty Six Views of Mt Fuji…if you missed it in Tokyo at the National Museum then come with us to see five from the series, including ‘The Great Wave’ as well as many other works by the prolific Ukiyo-e artist Hokusai of the Edo period. It will be a day of Japanese as we’ll also organise to stop in somewhere for some Japanese food post exhibition…hmmm, gyoza anyone?
If you’re lucky, I could be convinced to show you how to fold an origami crane if you don’t know how!
