Fit me up before you go go!!!

Well another hectic work day but I managed to meet up with cycling legend Steve Hogg and discuss having me fit specifically for the bike ride to Brisbane, booking made for August 15. Within minutes of talking he knew where my aches where and where and even knew how long I'd ride before cramping. He is a total freak I cannot wait! Also looking forward to catching up with my good mate Grant Herbert next week. Busy days ahead!

Riders on the storm

Well I rode last night in the pouring rain, mist etc. very spooky actually at 9:30pm on your own but kind of refreshing also. My speed was down a little due to the wet, many a nasty stack been had on the M7 cycleway on the dry let alone damp conditions. Tonight spent studying some stuff and planning work, meetings all day tomorrow and training ride and night. Apparently the NSW Cricket Uniform Ryan secured for our trivia night turned up today so it's all coming together!

This is it!

Tonight marks the finish of the 99th #tdf, another year full of excitement and 21 sleepless nights, not really Cadel's tour but still finishing in the top 10 defending his win last year is not a bad effort. I did a 90 km training ride yesterday out to the Blue Mountains and back, a good avg speed and cadence but a lot of work to do still. What can we take out of Cadel's performance in this years tour, was it him, his team, Wiggin's or his team?

It's getting closer!

Well its under three months till I leave for Brisbane on the bike, did a ride this morning out to Emu Plains from Prestons which is about 84km and had it all done in under 3 hrs so we're getting there. Topped it off with two slices of Heidi's Nutella Pizza for dessert tonight, yum!
