Nothing blogged so I'm riding to Point Nepean or thereabouts if anyone wants to come. Pt. Nepean is one of the better rides that we do: easy, flat and sealed all the way. Turn around points at Sorrento or Portsea if you don't want to ride all the way.
9.30 Start at Safety Beach - usual spot at the toilet block. Marine Parade about #75

Tuesday 21st. Warragul / Mt. Worth loop
Start: Nar Nar Goon station for 8.42 train or if you prefer to drive, Warragul station 9.16.
Distance 66km but can be considerably shortened. Decide at the time. Elevation about 1000m but that too can be changed depending how we feel on the day. About 70% asphalt, 30% smooth gravel but that too can change if it has been affected by rain.
Weather for Tuesday looking good.

Tuesday 14. Short one - Toolangi
Start: 9.30 Green St car park , Healesville.(market site)
Route clockwise, Healesville King Lake rd - Myers Creek rd. Don't know the exact stats cos didn't have Strava switched on last time I did it. My guess less than 40km and about 600 m climbing. Not steep. Nothing more than 4 or 5%. if its steeper I'll shout coffee.
Coffee at the much over rated Beechworth Bakery - if we have to !
