'Cruisin the Cane'

Sunday morning bright and early at 6am, hit the road for a 100km charity ride. Started at Woongoolba/Jacobs Well and through the cane field, down along M1 service rd and into HarbourTown at Biggera Waters. Good head wind heading down, and couple youngsters setting pace. Good draft so easy as.
Totals out leg: 1hr25min, avg HR 147 @ 75%Vo2max, max 179 = 91%max, 1076 cals @ 45% fat, 54g body fat burnt.

Heading back into headwind, bugger!!!!!!! Managed to lose the two youngsters setting the early pace, probably burnt themselves out. Last 10-15km's into stiff headwind, broke away with couple of older fella's, but real fit. One a master's champion and the other on a single speed!!! Anyway hard work back in, sat on lactate threshold.
Totals in leg: 1hr 33min, avg HR 161 @ 82%max, max HR 189 @ 96%max, 1383 calories, 35% from fat, 54g body fat burnt.

My first sub-3hour century ride so real happy.
