Base

Lots of talk about base km's at the moment so I guess I should do some.

Got myself out the door with the view to fit in 80 odd km's under the belt for the day.

I had no particular route in mind but thought I might like to go out through Redcliffe.

Along the way I just made decisions as I saw options come up.

 

It has been a long time since I rode up Clear Mtn and it has not gotten any easier.

Especially when you hit the first 17% gradient in completely the wrong gear.

I did not make that mistake on the 2nd one.

From the top you get amazing views of the city on one side and out toward the Glasshouse Mountains and dams on the other.

 

We will be down at that dam pretty soon.

See. Told you.

From here we head east to the coast and follow it back toward the City before heading back west and heading for home.
