Short Saturday morning

Ah, 9 days in a row off! RDO Monday, and public holidays on Thursday and Friday meant taking Tuesday and Wednesday to give a full week off was a no-brainer, even over Christmas.

Have done nothing this week - combination of being busy and some back trouble, which two physio sessions have helped considerably. Oops - not the ideal lead in to Xmas.

That said, with the week off, have arranged to head down to Kingscliff on Sunday afternoon, stay overnight with friends and get out on the bike early Monday morning and do a bit of an epic. With that in mind, decided to keep it fairly short this morning, got up at 5, cycled to the start of the group ride (a bit over 14.5k), did the group ride of a bit over 21k in 39:02 (I was hoping for a time, but no-one went with me after Highgate Hill and I had to do the last 6.5k on my own! The bulk of which was into the wind!) and a pretty gentle cruise home of a bit over 26.5k to give about 58.2k in around 2 hours. Legs felt fresh throughout, but a week off and doing the group ride not having already done 40k or so helps, I guess.

Oh yeah, and the location's fixed - ta, David.
