12.84km / 38:52 / 73m / 18.0°C
Dark and ominous clouds and a gusty stormy wind, not quite as strong as our memorable last year, but strong enough to have me several gears lower than usual and down on the drops trying to make headway up Gardiner and Forster roads … and very nearly being slammed sideways into a powerpole when a gust caught me unexpectedly.
Slightly better down under the trees and along the creek, although there was lots of debris, both on the ground and airborne. Somewhere along here an insect was blown into my eye and had me blinking and squinting the rest of the way
Onwards, downstream to East Malvern, up through the Urban forest and Boyd park in Murrumbeena, then finally home along the Djerring trail
