Bike ride

Today Olivia and I decided to ride from Port Fairy to Koroit along the Warrnambool rail trail. It was fine and cool (20degC) and the breeze kept us cool on the way up. The outward journey took a little over 2 hours and was slightly uphill all the way. We were glad of the track markers encouraging us onwards. After a lovely lunch in a little cafe in Koroit we embarked on the journey home, confident in out ability to ride out the slight downhill all the way. We hadn't counted on the fierce headwind that slowed us down and our increasingly sore behinds! We managed the return leg with more frequent stops in 1 & 3/4 hours. For me it was probably 5 km too far but we are both proud of our effort (a little over 36km in all). We are looking forward to a shower as soon as we can move again and have decided against our nightly walk today.
