Obligatory East Coast Adventure: Day 18

Irma had mentioned renting bicycles a few times but I figured it was a Dutch thing and she could be easily distracted from the subject by windmills and clogs but today I relented and we hired some from the hostel because the weather had picked up and it'd be a nice way to see the Esplanade. We armed ourselves with a couple of sexy helmets and plenty of water but alas we forgot to pack the steel knickers and I spent the entire day wondering what evil was responsible for a mode of transport that makes you hurt in places that should never have to feel pain apart from during childbirth and even then not with the right drugs. See this is why Holland is so fucking small, it's not easy to reproduce when you've all crushed your genitals riding to work every day.

Looking All Dutch And Stuff

Give Me An Air Polluting Car Any Day

Torture Devices

Yah We Look Hot

We got as far as the pier and rode back via the pub but its a nice enough ride despite spending the ensuing three days feeling like I'd been kicked in the cunt. They have all these exercise things all along the front like rowing machines and push up benches and of course cycling machines for the masochist at heart. At least our bikes got us somewhere.
I decided that Hervey Bay wasn't the place for me, far too energetic. We got back to the hostel and limped to reception to book our Fraser tour.
