Where has your bike taken you today?

[NotSoBigBen]

So today a guy asked me "what is the most important thing you've learnt over all these many years of riding bikes"

Not sure what he expected but seemed surprised when I said "I'm a happier person when I ride"

Nice to be able to commute today.

 

PS - thanks to CWC for hosting the registration for Durbie Dash.

Lovely, moody, perfect timing! I like how the one guy turns his head, you can see they are mates chatting away on a relaxed ride. Right? Or is my imagination a bit too high on caffeine?

Summer is back… at 09:30. Still have 27km to go.

Coffee stop, then the 27km that was still outstanding to complete the monthly 100-miler.

I can’t remember when last I only had to take a shirt, shorts and socks out the riding gear drawer; and sunscreen.

Mist was low and thick enough that it got difficult to see through my glasses .....

 

 

Under these conditions "12 degrees" does not feel like 12 degrees .....

 

Then again, PERFECT conditions to give 100% effort and still stay cool.

 

Barely any wind to really make for the perfect racing conditions.

eBike ride over 5 biggish hills, trying - and succeeding - in not using more than 20-odd percent of the battery; I can feel my legs PROPERLY!
