A ride with Steve

An invitation from Steve "The Tooborac Terror" to ride his Rock to Lock permanent was too much to pass up when it arrived mid week. Yes, I had just ridden 3 x 200k the previous weekend, had already entered the 100k Blackgate ride on Saturday and the garden is in need of manpower but opportunities to ride with a great bloke like Steve on a beautiful near windless Autumn day don't come often. An 8am Lancefield start required a 5 O'clock wake-up followed by a 2 hour drive north. Carol and Kelly came along for the drive and they spent the day researching in cemeteries whilst Steve and I were on the road.
The countryside was spectacular, Lake Eppalock was looking great and Hanging Rock and Mt Macedon added to the stunning landscape. We had a great day, it got reasonably warm but not too hot and I think we both felt we had earned our brevet by the the end.
