Will he make it? Today’s riders were left in doubt.* Four riders began the ride to Moriac – Dave S (who was lapping South Barwon Reserve as we all arrived), Lynton, Mike C and Helen (ride leader).
The ride out was against the wind, and also included the occasional incline – the old highway at Waurn Ponds and Reservoir Road to Mount Moriac. A drink stop was made here, before the roll down to Raven’s Creek Farm for coffee. Here John M joined the group, having missed the start, then waiting at the old highway in the mistaken belief that the main ride was behind.
The return was via Hendy Main Road (south) to Blackgate Road, returning via Ghazeepore, and Grovedale back to South Barwon.
Thanks to all riders for making this final club ride for 2017 so enjoyable. Distance 57km. Well done everyone.
*Dave is on track to cycle 19,500km for 2017 – needing to ride 100+ today. He’s planning to ride again this afternoon, and then back home to Leopold. We’ll keep you posted. We presume that Dave is our club ‘winner’ for the most kilometres ridding this year.
Happy new year everyone.
