Have been a bit lazy of late, and wanted to see how long this loop would take as a more taxing pre-work ride next year. Also a chance of taking advantage of a 9am start (turns out it was meant to be 8:30 - oh well).
Left far too late after getting up late and helping get the girls ready (a bit) for daycare. Jst before 7:15 was never gong to be enough time.
Cruised towards work. Surprised by early pace, figured there must be a good tailwind, so decided to do the loop to Yanchep and back to school anyway. Didn't really push at all heading north, but still did about 84 minutes for 46km... then the ineveitable struggle back to school (about 17km in 41minutes.
Arrived at 9:20 and settled in for a coffee and some breakfast before contemplating some not too taxing work. School is pretty awesome without the students :)

Wanted to just roll home effort-free, but was scared that if I really took it easy, I might end up going backwards. Felt better than expected. Back quite sore for a patch at about 20 minutes and again for the last 10 minutes.
Noticed today that there seems to be a correlation between the completeness of a roadie's team kit and how funny their "I'm riding fast" face looks. Roadies are weird.
