"The Piggery", Belanglo State Forest. Short Hard: 3.7km, 10c. 2nd/10 (2:34 behind). All legs were perfect until #9. Just 200m, but could I find this depression? Probably stopped too soon the first time. Wandered back to the termite mound at #8 to redo my bearing. Found a large pit at the right distance but no control in sight. Walked a bit further away from the road before finding the right place. Lost 10+ minutes. 19°C. TE 3.5.

"Bicentennial Park - West Pymble". Long line: 2.4km, 23c. Hesitation near #2 (lost 20"). MP on #4 - punched #17 in error - possibly distracted by hordes of scouts & guides in the vicinity. Found dead end on way to #5 (-20"). #13 was on a UNMAPPED fence entension (-45"). Went to #18 before #15 (-15"). Then visited #17 before #16 (-45"). In hindsight, I made some good route choices and some poor ones. Tough workout on a good little map. 18°C. TE 3.5.

Parramatta-North Rocks loop (CW). Cool in the mornings and late but still warm in the middle of the day. Rode hard up North Rocks Road. Touched 69.3km/h descending Bettington Road. Drove to work late today and had to park in a 2-hour parking spot (expiring at 2pm). Managed to move the car into a cheap all-day spot at the end of my ride just before the parking rangers came by. 20°C. TE 2.7.
