June is officially the first month of winter here in the Southern Hemisphere, so I always try and get the big rides out of the way early. You never know what the season will bring. With a morning of “acceptable” weather predicted, I bagged this month’s metric century resolution ride on the second day of…

May Round Up: A month of metric century rides
It seems I just can’t help myself. Even with winter just around the corner, it’s another month, another increasing distance total.
