Hello everybody,
As some of you know I’m heading off to france for 10 days from tomorrow night, so this email will be brimming with useful information to cover my absence….hmmm
Sorry I missed the rider this morning, I was frantically trying to pack!
This weekend: Obviously WYD will be kicking off all around centennial and randwick, so with this in mind and considering quite a few people are away over the weekend, there are no organised rides leaving from centennial park this weekend (the actual park is actually totally closed to bikes sat and sun, as I’m sure you’re all aware).
However, Tony Golden is going on a bit of an excursion to the Royal National park, see below for his words of wisdom.
Moving on…next week is officially easy week where Jedi John allows us to sleep occasionally.
Tuesday 22nd – 6 sets of: ½ lap easy followed by ½ lap e2 pace and left up kiosk hill keeping the pace to the top (just staright up the hill, don’t turn right at top of hill), easy back down.
Thursday 24th – La parouse.
Saturday 26th – Easy 90 - 100km Waterfall return, stopping at Sutho on the way home to re-group and making sure you’re all riding as one group at least as far as the airport tunnel.
12pm – ocean swim, meet at N Bondi.
Sunday 27th – Sleep. Or if you are not that way inclined, a Sunday jolly around Kurnell, into the national park section as far as the rough road and include caltex loop, stop at servo on right hand side on the way out of Kurnell.
Tuesday 29th – sorry, I do not have the set from John yet, but I will get it to you (or just to Peter B or Tony G, thanks guys) before then.
I get back Tuesday (unfortunately not early enough to make the ride) so will see you all on the Thursday.
Train safe,
Cheers,
Oli.The one-metre (3.3 foot) shark turned up in a rock pool situated next to the open ocean at Cronulla beach.
Cronulla Surf Lifesaving Club spokeswoman Robyn Cole said fisheries officers netted the shark and released it back into the sea unharmed shortly after members of the public reported its presence in the pool Friday morning.
"It was quite calm, just swimming happily up and down at one end of the pool," she told AFP.
"It's funny, though, because we have swimmers who come here at 6am every morning to do laps. It's still dark then and they mustn't have even noticed it was there."
Cole said the shark must have been swept into the pool overnight by a large wave.
"It's the first time we've had a shark in the pool," she said. "We've had seals sunbaking there before, and get dolphin at the beach all the time, but I've never heard of a shark getting caught in a pool before."

The biggest cheers on the Boston Marathon course went to Lance Armstrong, the seven-time winner of the Tour de France. In his only previous marathons, he finished in 2:59:36 and 2:46:43 in New York the last two years. Here, he ran 2:50:58, not bad, he said, for a 175-pound man who trained only 45 minutes a day.
“I did O.K.,” he said, “but it’s always hard at the end. I don’t train enough and I always tell myself I’m going to train longer, but I never do. I’m not as physically fit as I was for New York, and those hills here are so tough on your muscles. I enjoyed it, but I always suffer in a marathon."
