Today we have had a stunning sunny day here in my part of New Zealand with a temp of 26 degrees C, the wind has been very light with winds of 8 kilometers per hour.

A perfect day to try and beat that record i got close to yesterday, its a 2.5 kilometer section of my normal 35 kilometer ride route i normally do.

Yesterday i was ranked number 2 with a time of 5.26 and i needed to lower that by another 15 seconds to be number 1, well today i beat that time by 25 seconds to give me a time of 5.01.

For the first part of my ride i went at normal pace and as i was approaching the section i knew i was ready, i selected a larger gear and took off pushing myself for the entire 2.5 kilometer section.

Once i got home i got the email to say i was now ranked # 1, i do still want to improve on that time and get into the 4 minute mark and tomorrow is another day to try.

As for my entire ride today i set a personal best with a time of 1 hour & 42 minutes which i am also pretty happy about.

After my bike ride i celebrated with a 3k walk around the block :)

Then my partner and i went out for lunch to our local favorite restaurant for lunch which was yummy and relaxing.

I got the steak meal which was its normal well cooked yummy meal.

My partner got the steak sandwich which is a favorite of hers

This afternoon i have been mowing the lawns and just relaxing, soon we will have some dinner and hopefully a quick walk afterwards.

Tomorrow though is all about another bike ride and after doing my normal 35 kilometer ride so much i may extend it a little.

Thanks for reading my post today and have a good day :)
