Today started with a climb up the official World's Steepest Street. It was indeed very steep 1 in 2.89 or something like that at it's steepest. It's Baldwin Street in Dunedin.
Later on, much to my own amusement I saw this sign.
Very jealous, Catlins counds incredible - a whole world from hundreds of miles of tussocky plains!
Glad to hear you're still riding well. Would you believe it, I'm now commuting to work form Alan's new place - 45mile round trip lol. This is sure a mental 2 months of winter riding!
Oh, check out this in Wikipedia.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldwin_Street,_Dunedin
Hey up! And so to my second blog that will hopefully chart my route to glory in the Island Games triathlon on 6 July 2007. This picture shows how I mentally prepare myself each morning for the forthcoming day. It’s a form of ancient Chinese meditation that addresses one’s wholeness with the world and therefore one’s balance in life, which, after all, is the key to success.
Defining "glory": Whether I win a medal or not, glory for me will be crossing the line knowing I could not have gone a second faster.

Forget to mention in email, 45 mile round trip!? Dude, you're mental! That's 72km if I'm not mistaken.
How's the weather? A bit better than the West Coast? ;-)
