Pre-Gold Coast 100 cram
Back to the usual Saturday morning ride, trying to cram some miles in before the Gold Coast ride on October 11.
Usual format - leave at some absurd early morning hour, ride to Toowong to meet a mate, ride a loop around the uni and Chelmer, back to meet the main grop at Indooroopilly/St Lucia, do the group ride (lap of Chelmer, Tennyson, Yeerongpilly, Yeronga, up the Corso to Dutton Park and then up Highgate Hill and then down to Hill End, up to Montague Road and finishing up at the cafe strip at Southbank. Rode home through Highgate Hill, Dutton Park and Fairfield before cutting west through Tennyson to hit Oxley Road and make my way down to Oxley and across to home.
Covered around 88km for the morning at around 28km/h average or so. Quads pretty much shut down at about 80km, making the last of the ride a bit uncomfortable, but overall went okay.
Tossing up whether to go for a ride or run tomorrow. Heck, might even be both.

G'day Vat,
Just caught up on your endeavours in 2009. Good luck with your ultra running future and I'll keep an eye out for you at the Glasshouse and other trail runs - been meaning to do a shorter Glasshouse event for years!!!
Don't give up on finding a solution for your injuries. Even Troopy only recently found out that one of his legs was 12mm longer than the other!!!!
Puntermatt

Myself I like to do a bit of knitting Saturday morning .
