Back in town after a couple of days away - business in Melbourne followed by enriching the soul yesterday. Kerry, Fiona, Jane (one of Fi's good friends) and I travelled down to Canberra on Friday night and then visited the National Gallery yesterday to see the Egyptian exhibit from the Louvre - not too much bike riding but a most rewarding experience nonetheless.
Tony and I went for our Bay to Bay ride again today and we're very happy with ourselves - a faster time and we rode up "Rocky" at the end! There's a hill in the middle of the Louise Sauvage pathway at Olympic Park that Tony and I call the "Rocky" hill - it's our test of how well we're doing in terms of hill climbing. Last Sunday when we did our ride, we could only ride past "Rocky" at the end. Today, we climbed that bugger and felt great about doing so. Stiffened up at the end of the ride though and I'm still hearing about it from my knees and other joints, but aerobically at least, we're good. With 6 weeks to go from tomorrow, we have to make every post a winner in our training but now, it's time for some celebratory Chinese dinner!
