Tour de Western Highway

If we'd known this was happening:

we might have travelled to Ballarat last night instead.

The 105th Melbourne to Ballarat cycling race.

203 riders spread out over about 30 kms of the highway made for a slow trip to Ballarat.

(Sorry about the rear end of the dog.)
In theory I will now be able to ride my bike on the back verandah while internetting, koboing, or whatever, and in all weather. In fact I could be blogging from there now, but for all the mosquitoes outside.

Riding

Rode my bike to a friend's place for coffee.
