Sunday travel


We were happy with the way the bikes travelled.  Geoff took the seats off – less drag and less to steal.  We stopped at Olivers Wholefoods at the Dog on the Tuckerbox.  They had a photo of a bullock dray towing a mining tank.  There were 22 pairs of bullocks on the team. We had been talking with friends about streets in country towns being wide enough to turn a bullock dray – not this one.


 The trip to Myrtleford took just under 7 ½ hours with two stops.  We left Sydney in heavy rain and then drove down through the valley to Myrtleford with drizzle and thick bushfire smoke. We hoped the smoke wouldn’t make the bike riding difficult.  The roses in the gardens are amazing.  We have a studio apartment in the middle of town above shops.  The supermarket is just up there for things we have forgotten.  We went there twice.  In the evening the sun was glowing red in the sky due to the smoke.  We couldn’t get the camera or mobile phone camera to register the red.
