Miserable riding conditions this morning, with the wind seemingly blowing into us no matter which way we were riding. The only relief from the wind experienced by Aaron, Vlad and myself was in the shelter of the National Park when climbing out of Akuna Bay. I copped a flat tyre 20mins into the ride, and after a late start and influenced by the conditions, we packed it up after 3 hours. Felt ok physically, but didn't really want to be out there this morning. HR monitor was playing up again (244BPM Max), so I am not sure if the HR Avg is so accurate.

TRAINING:

AM: 3hour cycle (87km). Avg HR 140BPM. Avg Spd 29kph.
