Ok I must admit... I don't know what day of holidays we are on. It either 5 or 6, depending on if we started on Sunday or Monday. I'm going to call it day 6 I think!
It's Friday today and its now just 13 hours until the bike ride starts.
13 hours.... After all the talking and training and talking and everything else that has been involved in getting ready it's here...
Mum and I just went out for a small 27km ride this morning as it was dads day today. He has been tagging along with mum and I all week so we thought before we give him 4 days on his own we might give him a day to do something that was not bike related. This took us to the maritime museum at Port Adelaide. Mind you he has been tagging along with mum for the past month (& 40 years of marriage) as they made there was down from Gordonvale.
The museum was really good, I even climbed all the way to the top of the light house... I didn't know there was so many steps to get to the top.... I do now....
After that it was back here to pack the bags for the ride.
We are up at 6 tomorrow and will be on the ride by 7 to get into the city to register and drop off the bags. The ride start time is 9am, so all going well the first day and the first 40km will be done by lunch time and I can update you on day one for the next 14 days of holidays.
Ok I am off to bed so I am well rested for tomorrow.
Great blog !!
