5:15am and it was almost light. Well, just light enough to see a pack of push bike riders running a red and after almost mowing down a few, I pulled myself back together and continued heading for the beach, still a little shaken.
A quick coffee and a chat while observing a very flat looking Bondi, I decided it was too boring to deal with, so I headed south to Tamarama where things weren’t that much better.
The sun popped out from behind the clouds just as I hit the water, adding warmth and colour and lifting the bar on what was up until that point, a mildly, drab spring day. The water clarity is amazing right now due to the flat conditions and as I swam out in the rip, schools of Luderick (black fish) covered the sandy bottom next to the reef.
Strong N-W winds were predicted today but as yet they haven’t showed up. They won’t do much for the surf but keep your fingers crossed, there may be some waves Thursday, maybe…
