Dare I Look

28km from Duffy to the bike path around LBG and around West Basin and Return, in 1 hour 48 minutes.

Forerunner Man was hanging on for dear life, and beeping at regular intervals.

This was especially so, for I travelled clockwise, and going down the hill just past the Governor General's place, I dare not look to see why Forerunner man was beeping quicker than previously.

He was travelling at over 35 kph, and unforunately I dare not look for too long, because the tunnel under Lady Denman drive was faaaast approaching.

Yes, my new (still relatively unused) Schwinn Bike was almost flying.

Best Pace was a 1 minute 37 seconds kilometre.

Only 546 calories used. But the exhilaration of wind at that speed really made for a great ride out and back. Even a few riders on horses, stopped and waited for me to pass by, before they proceeded to cross the bike path. (Shared recreational path.)

Until next time.

It's lovely to hear that you are having such a great time on two wheels Friar! I can see you in at least a novice duathlon this year if Rad has anything to do with it!

You'll have to keep your hair uncut to feel the wind in it more often!

Thanks for the triathlon report.

Cheers
