Ride with Vern on a number of the Mt Stromlo single tracks - bone shaking in parts and very fast in others - nice coffee stop at the top - double shot latte lifted adrenaline levels for some fast downhill ride sections on the way home.

Tracks covered (some in parts) were: Brittle Gums, Fenceline, Cockatoo Switchbacks, Blue Gums, Bobby Pin Climb, Emu Run, ABC Switchbacks, City View, Rockies, Tall Trees, Western Wedgetail, Skyline, Luge, Old Duffy Descent and Rascals!

Peloton of 4 today - great riding weather as well. Bit of a shock to find 38 Expresso being renovated but the owners had set up their coffee machine on the forecourt and were serving takeaways so we were saved! Renovations after 3 years seems unusual altho they said they wanted to put in more of a kitchen than they had before - might be another way to help us part with our $s.

Took it easy as neck still sore.

Ride with Peter around back of Stromlo - sneaked up on the coffee shop from behind! Lovely riding day weather wise. Hoping that riding over some rough tracks will cure my sore neck! - Ride a bit longer than shown as forgot to turn on garmin after stopping to answer a text.

Tourist ride round LBG with a visiting friend from Gothenburg and her father (who lives in Canberra). Friend was using e-bike sans battery whereas her father had an e-bike with battery fully charged which might explain why an 87 year old was on my wheel the whole time. Forgotten how charming the lake ride can be - nice to be reminded by a tourist that some things are worth stopping to take in the view. Fine weather but a bit chilly at times.
