Well, like you V I am feeling pretty darn good about my Sunday ride. Great you had nice weather for it... and you are heading into better weather so hopefully not too many dark rides (like you think tomorrow's will be) left.
It was a 50km fun ride with some significant hill climbs (one took me 15 minutes to climb!).
It was a great day to ride, it was forecast for rain, but the rain stayed away and it was overcast so much more pleasant than last year when the temperature climbed into the 30s (celcius that is). Two of my sons rode. My 14yr old came 12th in the 50km ride, and my 12 yr old came 4th in the 10km ride so they were both happy too.
I had a personal goal of beating my 2007 time and coming in the top 100... I did both AND won a cool $50 folding chair as a spot prize.
Last year my time was 2:05 and yesterday I was 1:53
Last year I was 135th rider home, this year I was 88th
