Went for a run this morning and even though runkeeper said we ran 4.25km we actually ran 5kms in 34:40 GPS ripped me off but 9 laps of our driveway plus a little bit is definitely 5kms. After brekky, showers and some last minute packing we were off!!
We are going to Wollongong for Dave's cousin Gabby's wedding.
Our first stop is the twin servos at Wyong for a cuppa and a wee break. And then on to South Hurstville for lunch and Subway, by the time we get there we are both tired and hungry and the sub goes down a treat.
Back on the road we head to the Sea Cliff Drive south of Stanwell Park, it's amazing driving out over the ocean as we are driving down into Thirroul we come around a corner and a car 2 cars in front is turning left and Dave isn't able to brake properly and the bike goes over, we slide about a metre down the road leaving a furrow in the bitumen. We get up dust ourselves off and Dave rode the bike around a corner out of the traffic while I followed on foot. We are both fine not even a scrape thank goodness for good bike gear! Dave has a small hole on his right shoulder how that happened I'll never know and my right boot lost a bit of leather. The bike has a few scrapes on the panniers and a broken lens on the right front indicator but that's about it. We gather ourselves give each other a hug and thank God we are both OK.
We arrive at our accomodation and although basic will be comfortable. The church and restaurants are all within walking distance so we won't be back on the bike till Monday. Pics to follow.
