City Chase, Melbourne.
Didn't win....darn it!!
5th place. We made a fatal error at the start that cost us the 30 minutes that separated us from first. After that, we executed an excellent route with no further hitches.
It poured and poured and poured with rain the whole time.

Not so much today. I'm starting to get this city memorized.

More walking around Melbourne. Slowly getting to know the city. No backpack today so was able to move more quickly.

Speedy ride with an uncle and cousin that I didn't know I had. They found me a bike to ride but it was about 3 sizes too big. Had difficulty handling the u-bends on the sweet bike route we did up on the Yarra but definitely a great ride and a great way to end the day.

Walked all over Melbourne with very heavy backpack. Actually, it was more like a stagger because I was feeling like crap after the red-eye flight from Perth.

And now I'm off for some fun in Melbourne...

It was one of those days. First I was going to run, then I was going to do yoga, then I was going to do core exercises, then I was going to do intervals, but in the end.....I did NOTHING. Better call it a rest day.

A windy early morning ride around river and back up coast. Got picked up by a small bunch of guys on their Sunday coffee ride and they invited me to join so I had a faster section there in the middle of my loop where I picked up the pace to stick with them. Pulled off at a cafe in east Freo for my favourite cup of tea (yerbe marte, licorice and peppermint) and friande. Mmmmm....

Then had to fight a strong headwind all the way back home but was enjoyable riding along coast. Lots of beach action to keep me entertained.
