Ride to local Australia Day breakfast then out to the coast and past a number of charity sausage sizzle stalls. Super crowded on the path with people walking/ jogging in both directions. Difficult even on MTB for a good ride. The lycra claded pair who were trying to do 25k+ on roadies, on the path would have been better off doging the cars on the road. (It would have been safer for every one). Finished off with a loop of Star swamp were I almost took out a group of bird watchers on a blind corner. Neither of us were impressed.

Round the River. Just did not seem to be with it today. limited enthusiasm even with the occassional tailwind. Tried to push the up slopes as training for the Karri Cup but found it hard. Will need a lot more hill and MTBO training before the march long weekend

Good speeds going north (although it did not feel easy) then a brick wall on return. Felt easier up the hills in the suburbs than riding south directly into the wind. Coffee at the dome in Mullaloo was cold and uninspiriing. Won't we stopping there again.

West Coast Ride - head wind on way back

Ride from home to Orienteering event. Wind assistance made it fun.

Headed east and south which was hard work into the wind, with an ultimate goal of catching up with the FROGS in Freemantle. Caotic cycle road intersections south of the Mt henry Bridge and a bit of a guess around all the road works. Absolutely flew down South street with wind behind, but flagged towards the top of some of the hills. When you are keeping up with the cars all you seem to think about is the lack of armour. Coffe and cake at South Beach cafe. Then up the coast home. Not as cruisy as I hoped as the wind became more easterly.

Different muscles from orienteering. Will be sore after a long break
