Well don't expect to go drafting me on 'this one' mentioned above. That is unless your resuscitation training is up to date.

A legend was born.

Imagine the fanfare if I go out and crack another hunge tomorrow.
Every little bit gets you closer to your goal. I even included the 2.2K’s to the park and back with my son. At 10 minutes it was no sprint but it keeps the telly ticking over.DavidTomic wrote:I still haven't done any huge rides yet, but I'm keeping things ticking over just enough to keep in line with my target.
Did another 20KM this morning [in a pretty nasty headwind most of the way] to bring my tally for the year up to ~80KM.
Remember ... slow and steady wins the race (or at least that's what I'm hoping anyway) ...
Hey, don't worry, 2.5 years ago I was doing 7km rides and thinking I was a hero.DavidTomic wrote:Ticked over 100 KM for the year so far with this mornings little ride.
Makes me a little bit sad that people like Norbs et al go off and do that in a single day though!

You'll get there. The 6k club will just make it happen faster.
I am thinking I might give this a go tomorrow.
