A slight tailwind developed halfway out along the Schultz Canal, and held up as a head-wind on the way home, but nothing like the gale last Saturday. Measured the section from the Criterion Circuit to Nudgee Beach and back—it’s just over 20 km, which is a good distance for measuring my cardio fitness progress. Did a few short intervals between Mercer Park and home.
Toombul Criterion Circuit to Nudgee Beach and back

It’s quite noticable how much slower the section between home and the crit. track is—I averaged only 22 km/h over that section. The main cause of the slower pace is having to go through Kalinga Park, which is full of young children and pedestrians (who often show less sense than the kids). Anyway, the ride down to the crit. circuit is a good warmup and cool down.
