a tale of two rides

Had to go out to my mum's today to lift a TV and to look at an area of the garden which needs paving. She lives at the Vines,about 39 km away to the east.

The weather in Perth is starting to change ahead of winter and it rained overnight and when i set off it was cloudy and blustery and the temperature was about 24 degrees.

on the way there the wind was generally across and behind me and it took me 1:20 to get there which was pretty good (average speed - 28.6kmh). On the way back i rode into the wind pretty much all of the way and it took me 1:40 to get home (average speed - 23.1 kmh).

I have now completed 2516km of the 10000 so i am a quarter of the way to the goal.
