Monday - Misc Road - 3:20

Round trip to Lake George, down to Woden --> Symerston --> Ainslie

Saturday - 8:38 - Stromlo 100 miler race

Rockytrail Entertainment / Real Insurance "cruise".

100 miles of Stromlo.

A bit wet and misty in the morning, but not too bad.

First 3 laps were good - except for a minor stack on the first lap - rolling off into the bushes after hitting a tree :)

4th and 5th lap sucked - gu gut, slow arse 50km riders, front tire puncture which stans took some time to fix, saddle bag failure

6th and 7th lap felt great - energy restored thanks to some coke and Vegemite sangers.

8th lap a little slow, but satisfying.

Notes for next time;

- more plain water in transition
- gaff table on the table
- cut sandwiches in half
- better music selection
- more water with gu's

Thursday - 2hrs - Majura

Wednesday - 3hrs - Majura/Ainslie

Tuesday - 3 hr - Majura
