Berowra<>Crosslands Reserve, Hornsby Heights. Only planned to ride to the end of the residential part of Somerville Road but thought it would be a waste to come all this way and not to do the extra bit. Descent a bit rough. On the brakes a lot. Climb back up was very difficult in places. 2.45km, +196m, av 8%. 17°C. TE 3.4.

MTB (puncture repair) 1 [0]
shoes: Giant XTC Adv 29er 2 (grey)
I think I have managed to repair the hole in my MTB rear tyre with a patch on the inside. Pressure seems to be holding. Added 2oz (59ml) of new sealant to the amount salvaged from the tyre (about 1oz). It will be good to have some other training options other than north, south or west on the road bike.

Our flight to Perth to start our 2-week holiday on 21/8 has just been cancelled by Qantas. Our connecting flight to Learmonth is still on, as is our return flight from Perth. I've got a feeling we won't even be allowed leave Hornsby for at least another month.
