Road Cycling 2 [3] 55.0 km ( / km)
Buffalo ride minus the group!! G-OH-G
As was to be 40 degrees I wasnt sure that group would ride but they did. I went a little earlier and got to OH and my backwheel shat itself, with rim breaking up around a 2 spoke point. Undid brake and rode slowly back in frustration. Norwood parade cycles kindly lent me another wheel immediately despite being busy, as I had it booked in for compact gears a week later. Nice one.

mt bike (aimees) 2:00 [3]
Lovely ride in Canberra around Mulligans Flat (north near Gunghalin)
Nature reserve mostly newly fenced to keep roos in and ferals out, with fence having 20 pedestrian gates at regular intervals (in case of fire they can escape). Rode all tracks within and then a circuit around it. Not so good as an O map now.
Amazing the new housing estates going up out past here, seemingly with little greenery in them.
