Early morning ride

Last night I thought, with Sanna away on business to Brisbane until tomorrow, i’ll do something different, I’ll get up early and ride out Watsons bay/South head.

I got here just before 7:30am to see the early morning sun shining over the harbor. In the photo you can just about make out the city 11km away in the distance, It’s very peaceful.

The course is 90km in total and after you leave the flat parts of Sydney city you get out into the countryside and there are some good sized hills to get up and down. 10,000 people are taking part in the event this year starting at 6am on the morning of the 1st of November, its a great event to take part in.

Here is the course map:
