Note

Skipped gym this morning for a combination of reasons - but it was a somewhat planned skip session.

8 AM

Road Bike (Commute to Work) 21:53 [3] 7.13 km (19.5 kph) +50m
ahr:136 max:158 shoes: Giro Privateer

Sucks putting on wet helmet and shoes oh well.

I dont knwo if it was global idiot pedestrian day or stupidly cuttoff Bryce day, but I had multiple people (mainly walkers) walk straight infront of my bike this morning when I had right of way and was at reasonable speed - generally without looking or even caring - a few close calls not that the walkers cared.

Bike computer wasnt working for majority of ride. Probably need a new/better computer. Along with a rear light that stays on - mine magically turns itself off quite often now!

4 PM

Road Bike (Commute - To Home) 18:13 [3] 6.45 km (21.2 kph) +77m
ahr:142 max:163 shoes: Giro Privateer

Up mount st and quick ride home. Felt different going up mount st for first time in a while.

8 AM

Road Bike (Commute to Work) 23:12 [3] 7.89 km (20.4 kph) +50m
ahr:138 max:155 shoes: Giro Privateer

Slightly better route through Subi today - probably didn't save much time though.

5 PM

Road Bike (Commute - To Home) 24:06 [3] 7.46 km (18.6 kph) +53m
ahr:128 max:150 shoes: Giro Privateer

A little bit of drizzle but nothing too significant.

Load of waiting at lights at the start which was disappointing.

Glasses didn't fair so well in the rain, tended to fog up as soon as I stopped moving and didnt de-fog as quickly as they normally would.

Generally a nice ride

Gym (Back / Tri / Core) 1:14:02 [3]
ahr:104 max:138 shoes: ASICS GEL - Nimbus 17

Bit of a slow start but otherwise good.

8 AM

Road Bike (Commute to Work) 26:13 [3] 7.81 km (17.9 kph) +53m
ahr:130 max:153 shoes: Giro Privateer

Decided on railway path due to wind and potential rain. Legs felt reasonably lethargic (for good reason) but cruised along all the same.

I want to find a better way to navigate subi without those pesky lights!

5 PM

Road Bike (Commute - To Home) 22:17 [3] 8.77 km (23.6 kph) +65m
ahr:142 max:161 shoes: Giro Privateer

Fastish ride home - a few PRs - mainly thanks to tail wind.

Saw Will running across abedare and accordingly hurdled some abuse about his slow running and motored off :P

Avoided rain - woohoo

Mountain Biking (Langford Park) 1:33:44 [3] 17.58 km (11.3 kph) +287m
ahr:130 max:158 shoes: Giro Privateer

Perfect day for it. Cool but warm enough, nice breeze, not many people... Seems the rain didnt hit this area yesterday though as it was BONE DRY!

Felt like my handling on the pea gravel was terrible and felt very unsettled the first lap then let some air out of the tyres and felt much more at home. probably could have let some more out still

PR's all over the place - so even though i felt slow and tired after yesterday still apparently going quite well... wonder what that means I could do if rested.

Mountain Biking (Home to MTBO) 40:49 [3] 15.11 km (22.2 kph) +68m
ahr:145 max:167 shoes: Giro Privateer

Cruisey ride in until a roadie decided to slide past me on the freeway so I sat behind him most of the way to canning bridge.

9 AM

Mountain Biking race (MTBO - Point Walter) 1:53:50 [4] 26.53 km (14.0 kph) +197m
ahr:146 max:171 shoes: Giro Privateer

Ended up doing it with Dave when we realised we where going the same points and sitting with each other anyway.

Probably meant me working a bit harder for the end and Dave a little easier - so be it.

Had a cyclist tell me off for doing a u-turn int he road because he thought I would clear him out when eh was ages away. fool.

Had a resident complain when we tried to access a laneway through a marked yellow vacant block that its private property.

Had Dave ride us off in completely wrong direction on only time I didnt have map contact :P

Otherwise really good day out there and a lot of fun - last one was pretty assuming once Dave realised his error. In fairness he followed me in and didnt know exactly our course in so he just guessed wrong.

12 PM

Mountain Biking (MTBO to Home) 40:40 [3] 15.06 km (22.2 kph) +63m
ahr:136 max:151 shoes: Giro Privateer

Lower back was starting to feel it on way home - 56km on mtb for first time in a long time may have been a tad optimistic - see how I pull up tomorrow.

Interesting maintained pace the full day. Even managed a segment PR on way home - go figure!? I think its only one ive ridden slowly once before.

Really found being on the mtb very different - was a bit confronting on ride to event until I settled into it but the ergonomics felt better since bike fit - dont know if its seen the trails since then. wondering how it will go!

Note

Decided on Monday that I would likely have today off gym - wise early call as I am sore and needed sleep. Enjoyed the time off.

Road Bike (Commute to Work) 23:13 [3] 7.39 km (19.1 kph) +99m
ahr:136 max:159 shoes: Giro Privateer

Wow improved breaking power much! Didnt really get up to high speed on mount street but the breaking control and speed was very much improved.

Sluggish ride just working through the tender legs.
