I'd like to thank everyone who supported me for the Brain Tumour Awareness week.
I raised $750 for Brain Tumour Support NZ.
It was a Challenging week with rain, hail, extreme winds, but I pushed on through. Accomplished 563km in the end.
Wishing you all a Happy Xmas n all the Best for the New Year, Lou Curtis 🚴♀️😎
As I continue to commute with this Spring Weather, I'm thinking it's never been as Challenging as this year. Sun one minute then torrential rain n thunder then back to sun.
Guess this us Climate Change!
I'm feeling a bit ill today n didn't do my usual cycle to gym for cycle class- Enduro RPM 1hour of Epic Motivating music n Instructors.
Here's a photo from yesterday Big Blue Boy, on a Wild day in Wellington
What a Challenging week it's been!
Wild Wellington Winds, Rain n some Sun, Headwinds not many Tailwinds, Indoors n Outdoors cycling 500km for #BTAW.
Today was the best Weather-wise- cycling round Miramar Peninsular into gym for Sprint n RPM with Awesome Instructors n friends then home again.
I set out to complete 500km- I've done that n more 563km.
My favorite quote is Nikes 'Just Do It' now I can say 'I Did It!'
Thanks, Louise 🚴♀️😎
Day 7 of my 500km Challenge for #BTAW n the Wild Winds continue in Wellington.
Cycled round Miramar Peninsular n into the gym for a Pump class with an Awesome Instructor. Needed some social stimulation n not just cycling by myself.
Tailwind behind me round Pt Jerningham speeds of 40.6km/hrs. 56kms today on a sunny but very windy day!
Weather Happens!
This week #BTAW has been particularly windy n rainy. A typical Spring in Wellington?So I've continued my Fundraising indoors clocking up another 50kms this morning.
I get more headaches since surgery when the winds don't abate too.
Another 50kms day 6 cycling for the cause.
One thing you can't control is the Weather!
You can control how you can make the best of the weather n choose to go outdoors or stay indoors.
Well I went outdoors n didn't last long- 28kms before the rain came.
So indoors on my Stationary bike- Mr Blue listening to Spotify for another 40kms.
Short day today but Mother Nature really wasn't playing cricket- as they say 🚴♀️😎
Lovely day but Oh those winds!
Did a lap of Miramar Peninsular then out to Hutt River trails as far as Silverstream n back. Ventured to Hutt City gym with 2 Awesome Instructors for a Sprint class.
Stopping for a cheese scone- my favorite ride food. Then back around the Peninsular again.
106km.
What an Adventure today!
I rode my Road bike round Miramar Peninsular to Brooklyn Wind Turbine n back around the same way home. A Rainbow 🌈 greeted me at the start then Road works all up to the Wind Turbine. I had to stop n detour on a Mt Bike track. I hopped off my bike to walk. But I was determined to get there! Just as the weather packed up.
Rode down same way as Road works.
Birds were swooping n chirping as I flew down the hill to home. 82km cycling plus 5km walking
Mother Nature was a bit nicer today!
At least the sun came out.
30 km indoors at gym Enduro RPM.
45km outdoors.
131km this weekend in horrid weather.
'Just Do It' 🚴♀️😎🌞
Welly weather hit with a vengeance today!
I headed to the gym for 33km- 2 classes w friends. Sprint n RPM.
Then ventured outside in the pouring rain n horrendous winds. Went to Red Rocks where got a bit of respite from the rain, back through the airport tunnel as the rain came hard again to home n a hot shower. Another 23km outside.
