Sunday Effort

You have to endure my dinner effort today - Beef Cheek Ragu done in the slow cooker for 8 hours.  I prepared it last night ahead of a trip over to the Wairarapa to compete in a 80km bike race. Forecast was for rubbish weather, which it was for the hours drive over and until we started warming up.  Apart from a steady breeze, it was a rather lovely day. Congrats to my mate D competing in his first race and who did really well in the flat parts.  I foresee some hill training sessions ahead in preparation for the 160km Lake Taupo Challenge which has way bigger hills than we saw today.
