Scroll down to see the different Gallery Categories and see for yourself how the FOGs get their kicks every Friday morning!
Ode to a FOG
By Sue Clegg
To become a FOG, a Fast Ole Git!
Means despite the heat you don your kit,
Gay pants, gaffer tape, gloves and lid
Come each Friday you’re like a big kid
Up before dawn; put your bike in gear
Driving the mountains, through the sunlight you peer
Press play on the camera and record the day
Watch out for those camels….get out of the way
We roar through the hills where goats eat grass
and lazy policemen parked on the pass
Keep the route secret or plod will get tough
“tell ‘em nowt they know enough”
Twisties and bends, Kalba and Hatta
Now head for home and loads of bike chatta
Did you see me… see what I did
I took that wide…. And I did a big skid
Now download the footage and make DVD’s
Lets watch it again, ‘cos everyone’s pleased
So the day is all over and it’s back to the grind
But with next Friday looming ……
we really don’t mind!
Thanks for the top rhyme Sue and
for putting up with the bike chatta!
