Just had a heavy shower pass through the southwest at 4 am, its heading eastwards and I may catch up with it altho it will have a 3 hour head start on me.... looks like I may possibly need the wet gear heading for Colac and beyond.

saaz, if you give me a bell or text around 9.30, I will let you know how close I am to the Colac servo. 0428 306 496

Rain has passed through Colac, so hope you all ride in around the front as it goes East. You will hit it coming in from the east.

Hey Gordo... remember you were talking about that sweet spot in the 1300 of 3,800 PRM for fuel economy.

I check that out on the way home and it turns out to be 110km on the speedo, so 100km GPS

Great pictures there. Have to take the proper camera more often as iPhone can be a bit hit and miss.
