Cycling For a Reason
Hi Everybody,
Details and Analysis of my day 10 : http://connect.garmin.com/activity/19846014
Today I left quite late it was 5h37. The sun was rising just when I started my day. The road from Alice Spring to Erldunda was nice. I have done 190 km in 6h43. The total journey was 8h40 and I arrived at 13h50.
The sun was not so hot today. The temperature was 32 degrees with 10% of humidity. The wind was against me when I’m heading the south. I was starting to feel the wind after 3 hours. I was quite fast today as we lost some elevations.
Yesterday was a quite long day and difficult for me. I have managed to get back some energies to be in a good condition today. The traffic was a bite more as a lot of tourists go usual to see Ayers Rock or Kings Canyon from Alice Springs. I didn’t cross a lot of Road trucks. When we had reached Erldunda I was quite happy to down my bike to rest. I feel nice but definitively I need some rest or maybe to have a nap.
I have already done 1700 km since I have started from Darwin. This week will be the hardest week for me. I will have 3 consecutively days with more than. 230 km for each stage. More than 700 km in 3 days.
Anyway tomorrow will be my first day off and we will plan to visit Ayers Rock and The Olgas. We will leave early as well in the morning as my dad should drive 240 km to reach this place.
Otherwise go to have a look on my daily albums to see our nice new neighbour for the night. Please click here to see.
See you tomorrow
While I was resting a fly came to bother me. There are a lot of flees in this part of desert. Today it’s my last stage before my first day off.
