Rained early but soon cleared - which made it a good day. Most of the time we had tail and cross winds, which was great for motivating the group to roll along at a reasonable speed. I took up the role of leading out, breaking the wind for the group and thus keeping the tempo up. I quite enjoyed this, as it mean't I didn't have to concentrate on someones wheel in front of me and could see the road ahead up front. But it was a bit harder as I didn't draft in the pack for the entire 151kms! So was a tad tired in the evening.

We were very lucky during the day as the rain squalls all went around us. Or maybe the good Lord was looking after us.

Tonight we were back sleeping on the floor, but had tea at the Ceduna Sailing Club. Ceduna is quite a nice seaside spot, with Norfolk Is trees, a pier and grassed beach boardwalk

Mark, Yvonne and I had a coffee and then walked out on the pier (Luke joined us) - it was very windy.

Each night before bed we have a singalong and one of the group leads a devotion. We also talk about the highs and lows of the day and pray for the coming day - safety, team work etc.

Tomorrow is a short days riding - only 109kms.
