First Group Ride at Centennial Park with Tour 200 team

Very early start to the day with alarm going off at 4.30am!!!

A bit nervous to be riding with the team, what if I mess up, what if I knock someone over, what if I fail……….

At least the natives seemed friendly and some of the more experienced riders were soon giving us newer riders some tips which was great.   Well at least they did once I explained that I was new, I was wearing one of JA’s training kits which makes me look look a pro and therefore no guidance was necessary.

So whilst I had done some of the hills previously in Centennial Park I had never done them again, and again, and again and again……. Much bigger ride than I had anticipated but all was going well until I stacked it. As stacks go, it wasn’t a bad one, we were had virtually stopped but I thought that we were still going to go but we didn’t and I didn’t take my foot off the pedal………… boom!  Landed mostly on my elbow, these are over rated anyway….
