So fun start to the day - flat car battery for no reason and a flat new tyre on bike - solved both issues and made it to the start with 1 min to spare luckily delayed by 15 mins.

Got stuck in massive Q at 122 (first western control)
Then missed 107 (accidentally), got 106 came back grabbed 107 went up to 128 felt my mistake was good now, 123,

illegal down the shared bridge path oops! 105, 101, 121 went along northern road to 125, 126 , 110

113 - spotted Paul and was happy was still in touch here. 112, then

BRAIN FART - into retirement home back out up to guildford, first right up to the end of dead end road... er wtf (was look at 113 not 124 this whole time blah once I realised had lost a good 6 spots)

Went round to 124 saw the people who I had to re catch reverse around park to 127 then 117 and down to 119 - caught quite a few in that process - under pass and around to 102 (just stayed on map). 118 almost rode past 120, then clear run 103, 116, 115, 114, 109 and home.

Google car got my coming to the event and also going home from event - whats the odds!

Oh and car started ok woot!

really nice ride with Tash around the park - gave her a bit of a tow towards word before peeling off homewards

Nice walk with Emma before lunch at the tavern.

Had a reasonable run, never really opened the taps speed wise - not sure why so felt ok most of the way - definitely had a bit more I could give - had blister issues on both feet which made about half the run pretty uncomfortable - oh well.

Knee feeling good so maybe not pushing as hard as I could actually meant less knee pain - maybe.

Certainly blew the hang over out of the water!

Thanks to Tash who gave me heads up on locked gate!

C • Locked gate 3

Gosh it was a struggle pulling myself out of bed - even managed to put on the wrong shoes and only realized once on the bike and had to go back #fail.

Slowly in to meet tash from where the pace increased and I was kept somewhat honest. 3 laps of the park and then home.

Such a nice way to start the day once your over the initial shock - need to get used to this again.

Breached rear wheel side wall on feral groove decline - sad face. compounded by spar tube having a puncture - repairing that, cannister not working, manual pump then tube getting another puncture on scorpion downhill. walked out from end of very sketchy scorpion... not a good day. :(
