Tour De Cure 100K Assessment Ride to Bobbin Head and Akuna Bay

Alarm was set for 3.50am, seriously 3.50am, this was so I can get picked up from paddington at 4.30am to get a lift to neutral bay for 5am, this is insane!!

Got put into pelotons and off we go on an epic 100K ride to Bobbin Head and Akuna Bay. Got chance to ride with some new people including DC aka Dave Curran.

Great good long practice ride with the crew again, managed to get up to 60K p/h coming down some of those hills, had a scary incident and I wished I’d gone to the loo a bit earlier but recovered and then decided to put a bit more pressure on the brakes, there’s only 2 more weeks till the event so no point being clever now and getting an injury.

For the first time I was quite hungry through the ride so eat most of my bars and banana’s and thought I’d be ok to get back, not realising there was still a good 25Km’s to go and we didn’t really do a coffee stop, lucky for me I had a gel which powered me home.
