    400 kmh on a bike

    https://youtu.be/UeU0fzYMlmU

    Fairly bloody quick

    If others haven't seen it, this local run up the hill behind Gladstone in the Wairarapa is a nice piece of riding too

    Wairarapa Ulysses use it for some of our rides.
    But not today - lovely day for 'gentle perambulate'.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
