Good Friday Training

03/04/12 A Couple Of Days In Newquay
Well today was a bit different for our training as we left the bikes at home and got in the car to go to Newquay cornwall. We book random dates throughout the year and head down to the UK’s surfing mecca. I am a keen skimboarder and although i am not that great at it […]
28 Mile Training 02/04/12

Training 01/04/12

We Get Charged At Battery World In Hervey Bay
We wake up this morning, and undeterred from yesterday efforts, Jane wants to go for another run. This time she went at her own pace, and I went at mine. Running is pretty natural to me, but Jane does not find it easy, but she gives it her best shot! I came back and showered […]
