Afternoon ride down to Mt Henry Bridge and back, then out to Christchurch and back. Increased the effort a bit to chase people who came past me a couple of times to ease the boredom. First on the way back from Canning Bridge to the Narrows, then again from Birdwood Pde out to Christchurch. The second was a guy on a time trial bike going pretty hard so that was a much harder effort. Didn't quite hang on to the end but closed the gap to about 30m on the final climb.
