Decided to head off from Albany a day earlier and knock off a few k's as the track goes past Cosy Corner where we were staying. Had coffee with Greg and Denise, Judy and Julie before Lloydy and IWeiterlesen

Completed the trip to Denmark leaving Cosy Corner around 8:30 and arriving at the Blue Wren Youth Hostel around 1:15. Unfortunately Lloyd picked up a small leak( not the vegetable) and we had to pumpWeiterlesen

Left Denmark at 8am after a sweet lamb curry pie and coffee at the bakery (that's the Pie Shop,Tim!). Lloyd had a vege pie and a baby chino- it's only the 3rd day and he's already starting to turn!Weiterlesen
Reisender A good test to try all your gear for the hut tonight. No pie and coffee for breakie in the morning then, maybe later in the day! Glad everything is going well. 🙂

Very glad to get to the hut around 2:30. Great first 38km to Kent River but within the next 16km there were long stretches of very soft sand - some of which you couldn't ride and we had to push theWeiterlesen
Reisender The bridge looks fun but that sand not so much. Hopefully you get a better night sleep tonight. Enjoy the serenity.

The toughest day so far- started at 8am and arrived into Walpole at 3:45. 5 hrs riding time and 55 kms covered. Started with patches of sand and then countless hills. In between there was some niceWeiterlesen
Reisender Sounds like a good idea to rest up. The tingle trees look amazing. Love the photo of Lloyd riding through the middle of one.
Reisender The day sounds tough. Enjoy the rest! I'm sure a pub meal and beer/wine will help.
Reisender Insanely tough and decided to stay 2 nights in Walpole to recover. Pulled in here this arvo, and i wasn't well at all. Hopefully, dehydrated, and i lost a drink bottle this morning on the trip,so will get a larger one tomorrow
Reisender Im sure you are drinking heaps of H2O and using electrolytes. Dehydration sucks.

Nice ride today. Started with 4km uphill towards Mt Franklin to warm us up as it was only 1 degree at 6am. From then on mostly downhill and a lot of single track some of which reputably goes throughWeiterlesen
Reisender The hut must have been cosy. I hope your ear plugs worked well.

A bit of drizzle last night kept the overnight temperatures up and settled the dust. The Defence Force guys were up at 5am as they were pushing past Northcliffe and camping in the bush. I may haveWeiterlesen
Reisender Off to the Workers Club shortly. I'll have to sign Lloyd in because it's only for us workers!

Fantastic 44km ride through the Karridale Forrests with mixture of gravel road, single track and old rail formation. Lazy 9am start after cooked breakfast at the Naughty Noodle with a young countryWeiterlesen
Reisender Well, after reading Gary's interpretation of the trip, i think he has good a few things mixed up but i will correct them on the summary of the trip. One he has missed was in Northcliffe. After riding back from the workers club 2ks out of town, at 8.30 pm pitch black,he proceeded back to Walpole instead of Northcliffe. Again, i had to explain the dangers of drinking and riding, and navigation by the stars
