Welcome!

Greetings and Salutations and welcome to our new blog, Waiting for Steve.

So what is Waiting for Steve?

Waiting for Steve was born when a few mountain biking mates got together for a little race called the Triple Triathlon back in 2001. Originally called Nik, Rik and the Bunny Boys, during one of the legs, Steve (me) made this outrageous claim:

"Coppins Crossing in 30 minutes - no worries!"

Needless to say, I took a lot longer than 30 minutes. My team mates were waiting ...and waiting ...and waiting ...and a new team name was born ...Waiting for Steve.

The name has stuck ever since. Now whenever we get together, whether it's all three of us core members or any combination of us, the 'official' - and I use that term very loosely! - team name is used ...Waiting for Steve.

So, who are the core members of Waiting for Steve?

Well, there's yours truly, Steve (or Stevo), Dave (or Davo/Fuzzy) and Murray (or Muz). There are others who have joined us at points throughout the years including friends, relatives and spouses but the core of the team is us three...

So, the point of this blog? Well, I thought it might be fun to post up some of the teams races and what we (occasionally) get up to in the lead up.

The most important race and the one we do every year is the aforementioned Triple Tri, but we also get together for some of the MTB endurance races going around in NSW like the Working Week Series and the odd point-to-point race like the Woodford to Glenbrook Classic. The latter is not a team event but we get together and race each other which is a lot of fun in itself and ensures bragging rights until next years event!

Anyway, enjoy...
