Tuesday ride

In a concerted effort to regain fitness following prolonged festivities, and without expending energy we neither of us possess, Mike and I are attempting our inaugural 2023 ride next Tuesday.

Emerald Library at 0930, headed the long way round (Bourke's Crk Rd) to the Apple orchard and back via the dam wall, then past Werner's place etc.

Today's ride

The rain, aka mud, has reigned victorious and so today's ride via Kirth Kiln has been postponed. Maybe next Tuesday if the weather changes for the better. Fingers crossed.

Tuesday ride

What with indecision as to whether or not to wear a rain jacket, 5 took off from the Cardinia dam wall, on an unknown route to Brown's ochard and an equally unknown route back to the Cardinia dam.. Mike had sussed the route using the infallible Google Maps as his guide.

Our climbing fitness was tested by the multiple short hills the littered our journey along with "No Thru road" signs that Google did not know about..

The sight of hill number N+1 caused the group to split. Enough was the plaintiff cry. The brave tackled the hill. The others found an easier route which, in the long run, turned in to a loop taking them back to a earlier part of our journey. Thus they repeated many of the hills they had climbed earlier.

Meanwhile, the brave who tackled the hill, found that  said hill promptly fattened out. So they just cruised back to the cars and waited, and waited, and waited, basking in the warm sun whilst awaiting the itinerants.

The highlight of course was adjourning to Werner's place for coffee, broad beans, a Bex Powder and a lie down.

Ride: THURSDAY 1 NOV

Meet at Monbulk sports ground, at 0930.

Thursday to Hurstbridge

A rather quick ride to Hurstbridge on Thursday, what with John Bird, Jurgen and Peter setting the pace. What else could you expect!

 Harald won the prize of the day however. Whilst the rest of us partook of nourishing carb and protein update at the Hurstbridge cafe, Harald could not go past the Vanilla slice. 

The picture tells a thousand words.
