Murray to Moyne Ride

This friday I am to meet up with a team of 16 people I don't know except for one, to join the group and ride in the Murray to Moyne fundraiser this weekend. We drive upto Swan Hill on friday to depart on Sat at a very respectable hour of 10am!

I haven't ridden it before, but my understanding is that you ride one hour on and one hour off into the night until we get to Hamilton! Camp for the night and then collectively ride into Port Fairy on Sunday morning.

2 other starting points are Mildura and Echuca where riders leave from, but we all meet up at the end.

I only plan on doing one stint at a time, not doubling up (doing 2 hours), so I anticipate riding approx 200klms. This will be the longest I have ever ridden.

So far I have been consistent with my training, so I am looking forward to a different kind of challenge as well as the social aspect.

My bike is ready decked out with new lighting and tomorrow goes in for a service to make sure I won't let the team down with any malfunction!

Of course, taking antioxidants will be a requirement on Friday and Saturday night!!

Until next time.
