Good news never lasts

Well after a dream month of training and racing I had 4 days of hard riding planned for the easter weekend and then a taper for my next big race - Blayney to Bathurst - a 110km race through the west of regional New South Wales.

I set up a training base in Wollongong where I was in easy reach of 3 good climbs and lots of great terrain to train on. Mother nature stepped in a bucketed down a good dose of rain and flog so I was trapped in my hotel room for the entire weekend.

Bit of a bummer but these things happen. Nevertheless I have a day off tomorrow and am planning a whopper ride in the order of 180km over some nasty hilly terrain to test the legs and get some good interval training up some nice climbs.

I hope the weather holds out for me....
