team squeeze with Nathan Fa'avae, prize giving for Source to Sea cycle race
My twin brother Doug (the handsome lad on the far right) is over from Toowoomba, Queensland to participate in the Source to Sea cycle race from Lake Rotoiti to Carters Beach, Westport, 160km. The day of the race, Saturday November 3rd was cold and wet, nothing like his normal riding conditions. Never the less, he came third in his age grade. In fact, our team: Team Squeeze sponsored by Villa 10, luxury accomodation in Nelson - had 5 podium places out of the six riders entered. Even I achieved a podium finish (ssssh, in the 35 km section, very embarrassing). That's me next to Nathan Fa'avae with my mouth hanging open in excitement. It was a fun day despite the rain and cold, especially for me since 1. i didnt do the 160 km and 2. the 35 km ride from Berlins to Carters Beach was dry, but with a nasty head wind. Next year I am going to train, that's a promise, and improve my time by 10 minutes. You read that promise on the blog
