Up early. Quick coffee, some muesli and yoghurt. Get dressed while catching up on the news. Shoes on. Out the door. Clip in. Ride.

When it’s summer in Sydney, there coast offers myriad options for spectacular views and an excuse to get out of bed.
I don’t need any excuses. But it is good to have a plan.
Yesterday the intention was simple: be in the water by the time the sun rises. Cool off, start the day a different way, get to the office after having done some exercise and seeing things in a different light.
The sunrise and a sea pool provided the motivation – and the destination – and there were many rewards.
