After six months in the wilderness it was time to dig out the Ozstoc jacket and go for a ride. I haven't done much riding bar commuting in that time. Recently I bought a Forcite helmet which has an in-built camera because you know, I need more cameras.
First stop was to look at this monument in Flagstaff Hill. I've seen signs for it many times but this was the first time I pulled in to have a look.
This rusty truck was on a side road from Bull Creek.
That road then turned to dirt a few meters later on the other side of a crest and not wanting to u-turn on such an incline rode it through to Strathalbyn. This is the view from the Forcite helmet.
During a comfort stop at Strath' the rain began to fall so the rain gear came out.
This monument is a tribute to a rider who had ridden on. It was my first stop here since coming here on a Sym Firenze in 2014.
No road trip in South Australia is complete without seeing ruins of some sort.
I arrived at the Greenhill Inn super early and put the drone up when the rain stopped (it's illegal to fly in the rain). The cockatoos went mental. It seems like hundreds of them flew in circles around it and squawking like mad so I took a couple of photos and brought it back down again. I didn't take any videos.
I then went for a walk around the church before rain came down again and vegetated under the canopy of the day's lunch venue before making my way back to the bike. Stinky Pete was the next to arrive.
After lunch the ride home was pretty straight with no stops.
