Not much to report really
The last time I did this out and back course (which was also the first time), I got a flat about 3/4 of the way through
Today I was having trouble using my oxygen and turned back about half-way out... so I have yet to complete this course.

My upper lip (where a moustache would be if I was a man) kept tingling - sensation I haven't had since I first started cycling... a sign of not enough oxygen.
I didn't fancy tackling Coops Hill in oxygen deficit so turned around.

And Spring had the day off today - I know last week I said Spring was here, but today is was raining, the steady breeze was cold and the temp on my speedo read 5'C.

Think I'll try a hard ride tomorrow - I only ended up with 25km under my belt (and my thighs are still cold! )

Wish I'd had the camera today, my partner and two sons who also raced today all wore the yellow jerseys of their grades! Pretty cool.
