huon series race. from franklin and doing the winter challenge course - which is through channel in Egg Island, up towards huonville, around top of island then back to Franklin. conditions were ideal. i hitched a ride on Brent's wash for almost all of first half but got droped just near the end of the island when i took a different line to avoid some snags and i couldn't jump back on. nethertheless i was running out of steam and wasnt thinking id be able to hold on much longer anyway. turned afer 31 minutes and realised that if i was ever going to break one hour it would be today. so tried to keep up the pace and not lose to much ground to brent. slogged it out and tried to finish strongly and amdelighted that i broke 60. negative split is due to slight current and not going through canal on way back. very happy.

after a quick transition grabbed kids and bike and took them to a party and then drove to tolosa st mtb park with the intention of practising switchbacks. just had time for two laps before having to head back to party. was buggered. happy with this weekends training.
