Look at this, actual events to report! Golly!
So today, at the big communal breakfast thing my hostel hosts, I got to talking to a Japanese teacher called Mayu (a teacher from Japan, who incidentally teaches the langauge. I comend her on fufilling both interpretations of the term), about Pancakes, no less. Conversation soon turned to how she was going for a bike ride down to Glenelg, which is the area's shit hot amazing beach. I'd been looking for an excuse to go down there, so we decided to hire some bikes and go on the ride to Glenelg. A lovely, scenic 12km ride along the river torres (or something).
It was pretty awesome, lots of great scenery, the weather was fantastic and the beach itself was great. We didn't get the chance to stick around for too long however, as we had to return the bikes by 4:30 or face a hefty charge.
However, I apparently rented a bike with no gears, which, although it meant that downhill freewheeling was an absolute blast, also meant that going uphill required me to summon forth my supreme effort and ego.
In short, one 24km ride later, my thighs hurt, my right arm (?) hurts and my bony, bony ass also hurts.
Fun times though.
Once again, camera's still broken, Mayu took a bunch of pictures which hopefully she should be emailed to me. I'll post them up when I get them.
