The night before the beginning
I should be asleep right now but one final post.
For those of you who like numbers here are a few training stats I meant to add in earlier. Since mid December I have ridden 4,650km, 41,500m of climbing (that equates to around 4 Mt Everests), and nearly 11,000 minutes of riding time (this only includes time when the bike was moving, not stationary). I lost count of the number of GU’s, bananas, litres of Gatorade or Coke that was consumed along the way. Safe to say it was a lot.
All 60 riders, 40 support crew and other helpers converged on the Mecure Hotel here in Sydney for the registration, team briefing and a team dinner where family and friends joined us for a meal.
(NOTE: the front facing camera on my iPhone is scratched so I need to take photos using ‘selfie’ mode, and hence my melon keeps getting in a lot of the pics!).
Leave a message for me:
If you want you can even spread the word and post it on facebook.
