In Deni now, a tad over 200 Km, wet trip this morning.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #130 on:** November 16, 2017, 07:59:12 AM »

Now past Deni, possibly crossing the Murray into Vic again at Barham, heading for Kerang?
Pure guesswork on my part, we shall see.

Now in Kerang, hope the weather isnt too sour.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #132 on:** November 16, 2017, 10:42:07 AM »

Ridden about 360km this morning, now in Quambatook.
Another 200 Km to Halls Gap from there.

Rain this way has eased off, only about .4 mm at Stawell since 9am

Lunch in Donald. Still some rain about but it has dropped off since I crossed the border. Few photo opportunities.

When riding long distance, I always eat frugally, because output = input

... and there is often not a suitable 'dropping off' point available when the need arises.

Its only about an hour and twenty mins ride from Donald to Halls Gap

Safe arrival 30 minutes ago

Can't get a telstra signal so there might not be a ride report tonight.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #143 on:** November 16, 2017, 03:44:35 PM »

OK. Rest well. I will arrive about 10.30, 11 am on Saturday, see you then.

I've noticed my spot hasn't moved today but I have been out riding. My other gps tracker got the whole trip.

Bodø Glimt · « **Reply #145 on:** November 17, 2017, 03:12:11 PM »

Spot has now updated. Lack of telstra service by the looks of it.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #146 on:** November 17, 2017, 03:17:58 PM »

Probably. I sometimes have connection problems with my Telstra phone in that area.
I see you rode through Vic Valley Rd today, some nice scenery through there, and a slow easy pace with plenty of time to see everything because of windy roads and lo speed warnings.

Some very scenic views along Mt Victory road close by as well. Great twisties to ride through leading to Zumsteins.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #147 on:** November 17, 2017, 03:33:50 PM »

Todays cruise.

Kev Murphy · « **Reply #148 on:** November 17, 2017, 03:37:53 PM »

Its a great view from the top of Mt William, too. Bet you enjoyed the road there.

Bodø Glimt · « **Reply #149 on:** November 17, 2017, 03:50:59 PM »

Yes. I got a couple of photos on the up but the top was in the clouds and I couldn't see anything. Victoria Valley... a couple of nice views but nowhere safe to stop and take photos. There was one lookout but from there couldn't see much. The funniest thing I saw today was a tractor try to lift up a car. Eventually they gave up and used the tractor to tow it away. I don't know why they didn't do that in the first place. The gopro should have captured all of it.
