33.83 mi en 01:58:02 horas a 17.20 mi/h por Giant Avail Advanced 2. [Ciclismo] Met Euro and Elviner for SMRR. After school holidays there's nothing like a SMRR to remind me I'm alive. Caught Hadley's group on Cemetry KOM and they were going so slow we nearly fell off our bikes, so we passed. One guy was towing a kiddie trailer with 2 kids in it and a child seat on his bike with another child, his bike sounded like it was ready to fall apart. Hexham and back at good pace where we caught and smashed a few groups making sure we claimed all sprints, Elviner checking in with me, "Did you smash that chick?" Sure did and turned out she is my neighbour, aka Cleat Girl, because every morning she heads out to ride she clips in her cleats right in front of my bedroom window. 2300 for coffee and laughs, headed home leaving the boys to do some RC laps. Great ride to kick start my heart again.

29.47 mi por Giant Avail Advanced 2. [Ciclismo] Out into the gail force winds, Toasted rode to Swansea. By-passed Spuma as the headwind was only letting me sit on around 25km/hr, it was pretty strong for my little body, being thrown around like a yoyo. Turned at roundabout in Swansea, chose the big gears and flew home like a rocket, got to FLT and cruised home. Mixed bag of people on the track today, a newcomer female that was either overweight or a trackie, decked out in a pretty nice new looking kit, her thighs and butt were about twice the size of my body each. Saw a jogger up ahead towards Jewells and thought..."is he in a kit?" passed him and he was!!! Running in a bike kit with his baggy saggy chamois flopping around his butt!! Gross. People with helmets on theirs heads but not done up, why bother? Nice temp to ride in but pretty windy, great to be back on the baby again.
20.90 mi por Giant Avail Advanced 2. [Ciclismo] After school holidays, rain and what seems like 6 months off the bike I headed out to Belmont on the Love Track. No smashing just a steady pace and surprisingly didn't feel as bad as expected. Saw a turtle on the track and lots of people riding without helmets. Had a strange right bum cheek cramp which was quite painful the whole ride home, think my body was in shock to be riding again. Good ride and training will resume Thursday after the kids get another freakin day off school tomoz.
20.70 mi por Giant Avail Advanced 2. [Ciclismo] Headed out mid afternoon for a RR on the Love Track decked out and looking very Euro in my new kit. Head wind to Belmont wasn't flash at all, keeping my HR up. Tailwind home made it difficult to stay in recovery mode so had a burst up R2W getting an ok time. Not many on the track and overcast sky made for a nice quick ride on my baby.
51.88 mi en 03:00:02 horas a 17.29 mi/h por Giant Avail Advanced 2. [Ciclismo] Headed out for my pre-Birthday ride with Guru, Ev and Ellviner. Good pace, Ev smashed the Hadley's Crew up Cemetery which in turn smashed him for the rest of the ride. I claimed Telstra KOM but have a sneaky feeling the boys never chased :) Fast ride into 2300 where Richard Stanton joined us at Carrington, I introduced myself and his response was...."So you're the famous Carmen" Famous!!!!!! TDS's Queen is Famous!!!!!! Ev took off on Cav-ilicious and I decided to chase but just didn't reach him before he sat up, I still got my best time though. Guru shouted me a coffee at 2300 where we spoke about alcohol. Headed to Belmont on FLT at a nice pace, no Strava smashing today but Ev wanted to have a go at Scum Rises...we let him go. Cruisey R2W climb and home. Great ride, thanks boys.
