4 August 2017
My wife and I are heading away for 5 weeks so there won’t be any CB time for Cormanus. I thought I’d better get one last ride in before we go. I decided on a circle of the local mountains.
It was a glorious day and Big Willy looked imposing as I rode past.
Having made my way to Samford, I turned left and headed for Mt Glorious. There’s a very steep and winding ascent and I wanted it to myself. The omens were not good.
Luckily, they both turned off.
It’s much better when you’re not following things.
I had coffee (in a cup) and bacon and eggs (on a plate) at the Mt Glorious Café during which time Marc, Dani or a wannabe arrived.
Other chaps stood around in the sun talking wisely.
I pressed on through the bush, down the very steep Northbrook Parkway
Until I came to a patch of freshly resurfaced road at which point I decided to turn around.
After a wonderful ride back up the hill, I discovered the Western Window.
Marc, Dani or the wannabe was still relaxing.
More trees.
A great view east to the end of the world. Well, it is flat, isn’t it?
And Big Willy still glowing in the early afternoon sun.
