Rhino now lives in Riddles Creek so a trip to a the Woodend pub on saturday night for a meal and some beers would set us up well.
One to go....
Forcing down the last of a mixed grill... No fancy plating up here. just meat stacked on meat.... Sweating was not optional on finishing.
8am start at Castlemaine Cycles for a classic loop of trail. Rocky, windy, all within reach of the town centre.... We had 4 other locals come along for the ride and our guide Aaron did an awesome job taking us around. He also cleared the trail of all the orb spider webs that covered the trails. The wet winter/summer has increased numbers dramatically, some areas looked like an Indiana Jones movie.
Rolling the trails.
Climbing and winding. We covered about 30km of mainly singletrack. In the end it was our arvo ride that meant we'd have to head back to the car. My Garmin showing us the quick way home. Finally it proved its more than an expensive odometer... 
A bridge in the forest...

After a quick lunch and debrief we got back in the truck and headed for Woodend and the Wombat trail loop. New location and new riding crew. Troy Bailey, Scott Chancellor, Lewis Rattray and Mel joined us for more trail.

warning, sweet trail ahead.
Total riding was a bit under 60km for the day. Its great to be back on the bike. Still working on building up the strength but couch time is over.
Now its ride time!
