Yesterday started out as a cool windless day and made for a nice training session in the morning. Unfortunately the weather started to turn in the afternoon with strong winds blowing into town and the sun disappeared behind the clouds.
My morning session of a swim, run and a bike was really good and was nice to do it with the other Cyco's members that are here in Taupo.
Had the chance to meet up with a bunch of other Transitions members which was good to put a face to the name.
Registered and checked out the expo and then just relaxed for the rest of the day.
Wayne went for an afternoon ride with Mercury from Transitions and he came back fairly toasted after riding in the wind for 3 hrs. He has been playing with Youtube and hopefully the attached link shows some of the bike course.

Went to the Carbo Party last night and as usual was a good night. Highlight was the presence of Paula Newby Fraser and Greg Welch, who are here as part of the 25th Year anniversary celebrations. Greg was particularly funny when he got up on stage and fits the mould well as a genuine Aussie larrikin.
Was woken during the night with heavy rain and this morning it is cold with gentle rain steadily falling. Braved the conditions and got out there and have been and done a small swim and run, which felt great and again is always easier when your meeting a group, be it rain, hail or shine. Here is the swim start today
Warm shower and now just about to head off for the official competitor briefing. With the weather the way it is, will spend today inside and warm and just get myself ready for a big day tomorrow.
