Harrietville 2002

Rode the bike to Harrietville via Omeo and Mount Hotham. The new bike made the trip easy, no more worrying about petrol stops, hills and wind. This bike just eats it all up. Very, very nice. The only thing I forgot was the wrist lock and the fingers got a bit sore near the end of the trip. The weather was spectacular, real summer stuff. I was a bit worried about a cold change coming through on Maonday, but that only resulted in a few showers near that home that I successfully avoided. Pity I couldn't have stayed away a bit longer as I just got into 'Holiday Mode'.

As I was heading down from Mount Hotham on the way across a few bikes passed me, so i thought I'd see what it was like travelling at their speed. Scary, not my scene! I put the bike into 3rd gear and just cruised down to Harrietville.
