Wasn't in very good condition to be riding with gurgley lungs and tired legs, but put in an appearance anyway.
Fletch BB and I were joined by Tooms once he'd finished making a close inspection of the carpark's concrete.
Nice rainy morning, but by challenger I was already struggling and dropped way off the back. Thought I'd probably pull the pin and head down Rochdale Rd and back to Floreat, but Tooms who was also off the back stayed in sight and back on WC Hwy everyone slowed up for us both to rejoin and BB dropped right back to drag me up.
Was in a bit more trouble along Curtin Ave when Andre and I were slow to reclip after a red light, but I managed to haul us back quite quickly. After that I only really struggled on the big hills, and had a nice zero speed fall whilst doubling back to watch Fletch scraping himself off the road.
Tooms's flat approaching UWA took the sting out of the rest of the ride, except that we caught a huge group of riders heading onto Winthrop Ave and had to slowly work our way through them, finally getting clear on the descent down to Brockway Ave.
