Byford - Claremont
Nice tailwind most of the way (I think), didn't put too much effort in and bludged a few tows along the way. Someone went flying past between the narrows and the brewery so I smashed it to stay with him.
First ride to work since BTA, easy peasy, but just short of 50k

I knew riding home was going to be a lot harder than going to work. Did the little loop past the narrows to the underpass to hopefully pad out to 100k for the day.
Not too much wind around and I couldn't really tell where it was coming from, but seemed a bit of a headwind after I crossed the narrows. The drag striped was like a ghost town, so pootled all the way home by myself.
Legs were depleted halfway home and I was wishing I'd put powerade in one of my water bottles, or had a gel or an energy bar. Really started struggling to keep the legs spinning over 80 rpm. Just near the end of Kargotich road I could smell the reality of the light SEerly.
