shoes: Spirit PRS plastic
A paddle of many parts. Started at Banks and did the usual to Garrett Rd and back. Felt strong in the wind for the first 20 minutes, but very up and down after that. Chased madly after a ctuise boat at about the 70 minute mark and just got across to its wash, then misjudged angles and how much of a ride I was going to get and promptly fell in. This finally galvanised my will to continue back past Banks, in theory just to the cuaseway and back, but I stayed on the Burswood side of the river, so by the time I got to the cuaseway, I thought I might as well continue round Heirisson Island... which of course was much bigger than the idealised picture in my mind. Still didn't feel too bad when I finished, but by the time I got home, had half a packet of rice crackers and most of a jar oa salsa, some icecream and some cordial and headed for bed it was nearly 11pm and the early wake-up for Monday morning commute didn't seem terribly appealing.
