What was a very unenthusiastic mood to the start of today’s ride, with thoughts in people’s minds of a nice warm bed and watching a “film” (quote Carlee Taylor), ended up being one of the funniest and most enjoyable afternoons I have had at this camp thus far!, so good I wish I had brought my camera on the ride!!... to show everyone how much of a striking afternoon it really was!
Things that made the ride so satisfying..(no order);
· Making it through the ride; I was in the world of pain just rolling along, my legs were dragged over the hills and I ended coming out feeling better then when I started!!
· Riding while the sun was going down
· Putting in everything I had on the last SE (hill strength effort)
· Berry Gatorade
· Motor paced at speed over 60km (only lasted 2min but was nice)
· Descending steep hills
· The last leg of the ride, riding along the bike path
· Calree Taylor doing funny actions with her bike
· The pleasant mood riding home (everyone hit a high!!)
· Talking about the tub centre on the way home (recovery centre {ice baths})
· Sustagen (recovery drink) at the end of the ride
· Racing to the recovery centre (running late due to a lot of mechanicals throughout the ride!)
· I can’t believe I’m writing this but the recovery centre was so much fun!!!...everyone was happy and laughing it was certainly happy times!!
· The feeling of accomplishment after finishing a tough ride
· The support crew of Laura and Beth being super helpful and a blast to be around!!
So good Friday was I say a very good Friday, I must admit I did forget this when I ate chicken for lunch!!Whoops!!But I will make it up some time in the future!!
Tomorrow we have an EASTER EGG HUNT!!Something which has been in high discussion amongst camp, and which I’m sure will not fail to deliver on good times...and chocolate!!
