Back commuting, well sort. Had family commitments early in the week so mileage down. Weekly average is 287.32 km a week. Would like to get back up to 400 km a week by year end but that is looking like it will be very hard now. On the weight front, I started the year in a less than healthy position at 103 kg and I ended the week at 99.2 kg, so no change which is really frustrating. My target for the month end is 98 kg and I didn’t make it. On BikeJournal.com I dropped out of the top 100 so my revised goal is to get back there! In respect to the Australian Cycling Forums Club at BikeJournal.com my current goal is make the top 10; forget about the top five! |

Having had a week off the bike due to travel to Singapore and coming back with a wog, it was nice to get back into commuting this morning. Still not feeling the best so took the easy route and headed up the northern PSP into nice 35 km/h north-easterly gusts. Still signs of storm debris on the path at various points with some, "whoops, need to swerve" sand patches further north. Besides that a good ride, just a little chilly heading out door, sunny skies and but only a few riders to be seen. |

Joondalup to Fremantle. Quite a pleasant ride south this afternoon, the south-westerly was playing nice at around 17 km/h off the water at Ocean Reef. Traffic seemed a bit light on as well; mind you not to many bikes around either. That said did I have a bit fun trying to chase a rider down along Curtin Avenue. It at least spiced up the ride near the end. |

Fremantle to Joondalup. Pulled out of Fremantle around 6:15 AM. Definitely getting into arm warmer temperatures now. Tailwind this morning from the south-west around 17 km/h so made good time trough to Scarborough. Decided to stick to West Coast Highway as I was travelling good and of course then had to have the semi+trailer "driver" decided to see how close he could get and then he signalled he was pulling back into the lane! He didn’t get out it! Balance of the ride was good, if a bit slower. Only a few riders out around Cottesloe including a girl, probably 12-13 years old riding in a group of four who passed me when I was doing about 35 km/h and promptly dropped me! Humbling for sure. |

There was meant to be a 30 km/h SW head-wind but it wasn’t that noticeable on the Freeway PSP so a good ride south this afternoon. Only issue was the amount of sand and debris on the path, particularly between Ocean Reef Road and Hodges Drive. |
