Cycling

I won't say much about this sport, since I dislike it so much. The problem is I love triathlon, so the cycling is a necessary component. Thankfully, as much angst as every single bike ride causes me, more than usual since Australian drivers are the most anti-social lot I've ever encountered, there are some beautiful areas in my general vicinity so I often have nice things to look at during my painful rides. The vistas at West Head are particularly spectacular. I haven't been able to capture the most stunning of all pictures, as I often don't have my camera, or I'm not able to stop, or I don't want to stop, or I wouldn't have caught the picture on camera. But here is a little sample anyway.

Paul has also arranged several team events which are always fun. Philip, Paul and I partook in a 160k ride a couple months ago, of which my ride was only 103k, and Paul, Matt, George and myself took part in a 12-hour enduro event, taking turns riding around a 4k loop. Unfortunately, George had a little fall on the slick track and wasn't able to make our team photo. Otherwise, the day went by much more quickly than I expected.
