Melbourne Cup

If stopping a nation isn't enough, the whole of Melbourne goes to sleep for what amounts to a four-day weekend when the Melbourne Cup comes around every year.  The first Tuesday in November is a major event on Melbourne's calendar and the streets are nearly abandonded during the running of the event.

Traditions abound; such as having a barbecue with friends and family, a cup sweep that the same person seems to win every year, running late to work on Wednesday and Rob drawing the short straw and being the only one to work across both branches of All Torque Transmissions.

Good on ya Rob.
