62km - to and from

Up early - airconditioner not working and temps are in high 30s - so i was on the road at 5.30. It was warm (mid 20s) and there was a moderate easterly blowing. It was mainly helping today. Was cruising along when a couple of riders passed me (thank you) and the speed increased to the low 40kmh for a while, till one of the other guys died in the ass so to speak. we all rode together quietly for a while before i had to branch out on my own again.

back to cruising before someone else wanted to ride in front - yippee. Speed goes up to high 30s (i am getting better at this stuff) and i sit quietly in the tow and flog down the freeway. Unfortunately, it didnt last long enough as i had to strike out on my own again.

Covered 50km before getting to work (and was at my desk easily by 8).

On the way home i had to drop my bike off to try to get it "fixed". only rode 12 km but it was bloody hot (40 c). I wasnt unhappy to get off.

No rides tomorrow - bike in shop - so maybe i will get a "sleep in".
