Various issues in April, mainly too much vertigo to ride some days.
Still managed 324KMs so not bad.
Getting out when I can, 50KMs today so a good start to May.

338 for April.
1775km YTD.
About half the distance I'm normally accustomed to but enjoying what I am doing.
To be honest riding is more pleasant without the self-imposed pressure to cycle as often as possible.
Plenty active with other physical pursuits so the fitness level is still very good. Maybe not highly trained athletic good but way, way higher than the average Norm.

1,432km since 4th March (delivery of TCR 0 AR).
There is still much to do.
I have my sights set on the Around the Bay in a Day (135km) in October, and after that, the Bendigo Double Century (modified route/320k), State Library Melb., to Charing Cross Bendigo and return/weekend — first time since the last ride on a Cecil Walker Super Road custom bike in 1985). Another opportunity to work up a very decent speed coming back on the Lancefield-Romsey Road (1985 4-rider line speed was 76km/h over 3km).
How so very, very much Melbourne has changed since 1985! The City Square is long ago gone.
This photo below shows the Bendigo Double Century Group in 1985 — a big turn-out indeed.
