Being back from France for over a week now, I was missing the daily pain and suffering that we were getting used to during our big trip so I decided to pack the bike in the car for a saturday arvo climb up Brown Mountain.
It was going to be interesting to compare riding our local mountain compared to what we were climbing in France, well no surprises Brown Mountain maybe not as long a climb but stll bloody steep and tough, especially when one is trying ones hardest to do a PB to prove that we had actually grown stonger in the European Mountains.
Well I'm pleased to report that a PB was indeed acheived but not before puttng absolutely everything into it and leaving nothing on the mountain ( the thought of being slower after France was a real motivation). Very happy with a time of 47:06 from sign to sign.
Bring on Mt Daraugh, much more my gradient.
