Dandalup Hut

Woke up to a very misty morning in Dwellingup and after getting all packed up I made a safety call and said we should hold up in the Blue Wren Cafe before heading off. As luck should have it they served coffee and breakfast Lloyd had bacon and eggs and I opted for the healthy option of fruit and muesli with low fat yoghurt but unfortunately they wrote it down wrong and I was given Eggs Benedict - being the diolomat and not wanting to upset the locals i hid my disappointment and ate it. The ride was 42km with just under 4 hours riding time and presented a few challenges with hills badly scoured but there were some really nice single tracks out of Dwellingup. I did see something strange along the track in the middle of the bush- a jet black animal about the size of a dog went across the path about 40m in front and scurried off into the bush- I couldn't confirm what it was - it could have been a dog but we were miles away from any farmland. We arrived at the hut around 1:45 and the hut was on the side of the scarp with a nice view out towards Mandurah. Afternoon will be spent soaking up a bit of sunshine and relaxing before tackling what looks to be a tough day tomorrow- I'm talking about the night at the Jarrahdale pub tommorrow not the ride!!Leggi altro
