mt bike 4:02:00 [3] 74.0 km (3:16 / km) +1160m 3:02 / km
Long ride from Mt Pleasant - Tungkillo - Rockleigh and return.
Went with Uncool club riders for 1st half and they were even slower than normal. As they were only riding 1 way they did a car shuttle & as I wanted to go both ways i had been told to be at Mt P for a 9.30am start. They got back at that time and then spent the next half an hour plus having coffee at the bakery! I was not impressed. Even more so when they stopped after every hill ...all but 1 other rider were on Ebikes, so why the need to rest? Then after 17km they stopped to eat.
I hadnt been able to preplan my return route as UC leader Helen never lets on beforehand where exactly she is going... So I made the return plan up on the go and headed more eastward and found bigger hills and some nicer tracks. Near Tungkillo I came across the biggest car / truck graveyard ever ...over many acres almost as far as the eye could see...place called Tara and it also had Rolland transport there.
I probably didnt drink enough as got quite hot and tired on the return trip.
