Sunny Days
Due to intense peer pressure s of yesterdays post… The Hawk or running on his primary code name of “El Princiedente” was front and centre for this morning’s roll. Our planned third training member, well acclaimed Tri-Hard (tri-athlete) code named Scoobie did not from when the SUV pulled up. Due to a 4 hour wind trainer session put together by coach “Prof. Hubert Farnsworth”. I’ll leave you to research the name, be aware there is an in-depth post in the pipeline around “What makes a Coach”.
After role call we hit the road on the now famous Airport/Nudgee beach ride, a flat ride with nowhere to hide from the wind, trust me there is always some form of wind on this ride. Now being midsummer and after the recent rains the humidity factor kicks in and today’s predicted temperature was to hit the 32C (90F) mark.

El Princiedente and I rolled along at a good pace, caught up to a few other riders and slowly moved on down the road from those we caught. A great morning for a ride and the average speed was up. From our initial “Yes we’ll have a nice easy tempo ride” turned into a Lets catch the next wheel up the road, this in turn had the HR around the 165 and speeds sitting on the 35kmh (22Mph for the non metric readers). Rest of the day was spent relaxing and letting the legs rest, Arvo was off to a 1st Birthday bash for Big “D” who hit the big 01 in style…. Cake was good!
