Had a big crash a few weeks back (ride down hill > car stop suddenly for duck > run into car > land on ground > car evacuates the scene). Add that to the torn quad stuff I had back in August, pretty happy with where I'm at... all things considered.
If I can stay in one piece and my bike stays in one piece and no ducks enter my trajectory I will hit 200k, I reckon.

Great effort. I had a friend who rode the SM1200 and so I was following the progress of the riders. Day 2 was a killer.cavebear2 wrote:I've made it past 150k which I didn't see as very likely at the start of the year. However the Sydney to Melbourne (1215km) with 15k helped me get there.

It was 32 degrees when I was climbing. God knows what temp the bitumen was? All I know was it was sticking to the tyres
