It’s how many days
Marc picked up his bike from Pete at Wobble-in Bicycles. As always, Pete did an outstanding job with the service, meticulously assembling all the little bits and pieces Marc might need for those “just in case” moments that, hopefully, won’t arise.
As evening settled in, I was checking emails when a reminder for our accommodation in Townsville popped up. My first thought was, “Dang” (well, it was a bit more colourful than that)—I had the dates wrong. Staring at the calendar, I realized the dates weren’t the issue; I had miscounted. I had thought the 14th was a Wednesday, but no—it’s Tuesday.
A wave of panic swept over both of us. Instead of having four and a half days to prepare, we now only had three!
But instead of letting the panic take hold, we decided to press on. Rather than waiting until Sunday to do our final checks, we tackled them tonight. It felt a bit like being Santa—double-checking the kit list while also adding a few extra items now that we plan to pick everything up on Saturday.
