Day 2 - Ride to Jatiluwih - 88km
It was a perfect day for our first ride as the air was cool and the sun was hidden behind a layer of clouds. Today's ride would take us from the Ombak Villa to Jatiluwih, a place in Bali that is popular with photographers given the beautiful rice fields and other scenery there. The ride was designed to get the athletes accustomed to the riding conditions in Bali (dogs running around, some chaos in traffic, holes in road, etc). The pace was enjoyable and we managed 88km and a introductory climb of 2300 feet. Check out the ride here: http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/6214748
We set out at 9:30am behind Mike, our coach for the training camp. The group was a very fit group who mostly do triathlons and I think everybody there (except Winston and I) has done Ironman Triathlons and numerous other races. We knew that it would be a challenging training camp with such a group.
The Group - Before the first Ride. Not sure what we will look like at the end of this camp!
