| Feeling quite tired but headed around to Pelorus for a swim. Of course I didn't actually go in the water because it is freezing there, but we had a nice picnic too. |

| Nasty Graperide with poor legs, the right calf cramping badly. A pretty nice ride out to Picton. Across the hills I wasn't paying enough attention, and let a bit of a break get away out front. Had to hammer down the hill to catch up, and not wipe out on the gravel carefully placed in the middle of corners.
Spent most of the rest of the way clinging to the back of the bunch and trying to massage my calf, pretty much having a miserable time. Fortunately it seemed to get better after awhile and I managed to enjoy the last 20k.
Sadly Cris was more cunning than I in the sprint. |

| Staying on a neighboring vineyard, so a nice little 15mins to the start, and similar back. |

| A nice little ride to the kiwi. Feeling good and strong today, especially on the steep parts. Fun and smooth descent, with no slow cars getting in the way. |

| Usual Tuesday morning interval training ride. I found it pretty nice, something which cannot be said for Cris who spent much of the bays time-trialling off the back after a relief stop on Gebbies. Followed Greig up Evans, but he was keen to drop me, which he did. |

| More mapping of the Leithfield dunes. Today I ventured into some nice fast open sandy never before mapped dunes with just a smattering of tussock to keep the sand in place. Add some variety to the rougher stuff Carsten has been mapping. |
