Camel Trophy Des Gonzesses - Ride Report

The roadies turned up with bikes with big wheels,
all rigid, no suspenders they wanted to see

if their skinny big wheels, could be matched with some rips
for dopey and missile had niners with grips

and speaking of grips, boum boum did now see
some nice new orange ones, only two and not three

then riding we went, a real camel trophy
make sure you have had a good dose of caffeine

cos then we went up and then down with no frown
many short ups, and when up, we went down

but missile got lost at the and of a path
whacking thru bushes, bah not a laugh

then down "twisted sister", new path of the dopey
the roadies had fun on this down that is slopey

the missile did end up with a slightly wet knee
he got poked in a river by a really small tree

and still we went up some more metres to climb
and down on some paths that were really fine

until we had done a quite a few, well a thousand
until our legs felt 'twas a like riding through sand

then the gonzesses that weren't, they called it a day
and decided to go to the cafe and say

"give me a steak with foie gras on top"
and then when were finished we'll just have to stop!
