First of all a massive thanks to Matt Powell and the team of volunteers at the check points. ❤️🙏.

About 45-50 people I think signed on over the 4 distances with a big group for the 320 and the 150 starting at 6.00am from Toogoolowah, great starting point I think as you get the big climb to Yarraman out of the way early.

Well that’s a great way to get back in to some longer distance, first 150km for this year and with only a hand full of rides over 100km this year I know where I stand 😂.
Felt surprisingly great for the first 110km, then started to feel a little cramps come up so had to slow down a little to manage not going into full cramps, def need more training in those legs, even some cramp in my arms, missing the TT bars on the bike today.
The last stretch got a tat hot with temps clocking 40deg 🥵.
Made it back to Toogoolowah with a nice ave of 25km/h.
