Sunday - According to cycling tradition, cyclists must ride their age in miles on their birthday. For me, that's about 76 km.

Today we cycled 113.85 km!! That's my birthday distance plus a bit extra to make up for any years I may have come a little short in distance.

Last week's 100K was very, very hilly and I struggled to get through it, finishing it 2 hours over the Randonneuring time limit. This week, we were on a much flatter route (although not completely flat ... this is Tasmania after all), and we finished the 100K distance within the time limit with 13 minutes to spare. The last 13.85 km was just a bit slower ... no rush. Plus there was one good-sized hill in the middle of that.
