Butt Lite IX and beyond

Month: April 2018

Home again

April 15, 2018June 17, 2018Leave a Comment on Home again

Despite a luxurious 8 hours of sleep on Saturday night (and the bonus two hours I got on Saturday afternoon) I was in no way ready for the 4am wake-up call on Sunday morning. The subdued elation I felt at having completed my first SS1600k was further tempered by the knowledge that having 'finished', I…

Mustering from Coffs to Dalby

April 12, 2018April 12, 20181 Comment on Mustering from Coffs to Dalby

That freaking alarm!!! I swear I'd only just gotten to sleep when the thing went off and woke me up. All I can say is thank goodness I know myself well enough that I'd organised my clothes and our food when we arrived at midnight otherwise I'd have ended up wearing two pairs of undies…

Canberra to Coffs and beyond

T minus 1.5 days

April 4, 2018Leave a Comment on T minus 1.5 days

So I'm now seriously nervous about what's ahead... but also excited... I'm a bit of a worrier and there are lots of things to worry about (how sore will my butt get, how fast can I eat without getting indigestion, what if I get sleepy, where will we get coffee, what if we can't get…

What’s next…

April 1, 2018April 1, 20184 Comments on What’s next…

The past couple of weeks have involved quite a lot of work, racking up lots of frequent flyer miles on flights to and from Melbourne and Sydney, and not very much riding. Which is not really ideal preparation for my first attempt at a SS1600 (kms that is!) but c'est la vie. To make up…
