How is everyone this fine evening?
After a very slow start (I’ve come down with a post-travel cold. Make sense since I was suffering from sinusitis when I hit Italy and couldn’t really shake it.). Had to run in my tyres, so took advantage of the gorgeous late afternoon weather. Felt great. Now I’m back on the couch feeling like a bag of microwaved crap.
That dusk transition (for me) makes for some weird riding through Christmas Hill when you’re losing light. Though that sunset could not be beat.
Anyone here done any altitude training for hiking overseas? Where did you train/how did you find it?
Also did anyone go to see Cigarettes After Sex? Colour me surprised to see they had 2 Rod Laver shows. Of course they deserve it, but I just never thought they were that big out here?
I didn't see Cigarettes After Sex but I thought they were big in like 2010
Re Cigarettes After Sex, one of their songs blew up on TikTok recently hence the sudden popularity. I was confused about 2 Rod Laver shows as well.
That makes sense. Thanks!
