I know it's been ages since i have written here, but I've been cycling still, and just now I knocked 23 seconds off my time. I am now at 18 mins 57 secs.

I'll go back now and read through the thread again. See how other people are doing. [waves hello to everyone]

Today though, I went from top of the volcano etc down to behind the waterfall, then up the low ledge, and instead of cutting across the green to the winners circle and down to the other balloons as usual, I first went up to the lighthouse, then onto the balloon by the end house, then the one in the corner house by the bridge, then up the slope to the balloon in the horseshoe type area, then up the ramp back to the winner circle, and sped across the green and up the metal spiral slope to the balloon on that level. Got the doggy, then carried on the route like normal.
I am convinced doing that lighthouse first helped me. It may have been the coffee, but I'm going to try again later.

Hi Mummy,

Congrats on your progress! You can also check on everyone on the stats pages.

Let us know how the route does for you; otherwise we will blame the coffee.
