There just happens to be a fabulous hill nearby called Mt Keira nearby. Here's a view from below looking up (that's the big thing on the horizon at the back!)
And from above looking down! (As an aside, how awesome is this part of God's creation with the mountains and the sea so close!)
In other words, it's 466 metres altitude above our house, and takes a lot of climbing on the bike!
The record for the ascent set by a Norwegian friend was around 24 minutes, my best time was 28 minutes and 37 seconds. Currently I'm doing it in 34 minutes and 23 seconds.
I've set a goal of 27 minutes by the end of the year.
Can I pull it off? We will see!
