We're lucky Covid happened in 2020.

Imagine this happened in 2003.

Months stuck at home with your Nokia 3310 playing Snake, no streaming services & Blockbuster would be closed.

We've headed off for a few days R&R up at Beechworth...
Decided, just for fun to travel via the Great Alpine Road over Mount Hotham through to Bright then on to Beechworth.
I was questioning my sanity as we approached Mount Hotham as it was shrouded in pea soup fog.
Barely able to see a thing, Sue took up navigating duties by watching the GPS and informing me whether I needed to turn left or right...lol.
Bloody scary, I tell you!!!
Thankfully half way to Harrietville it cleared....only to be replaced by heavy rain! :runyay

Things could have been worse though...at least we weren't riding the ST!


By this stage the fog was starting to lift...

Rusty it certainly looked a bit soupy
I have ridden over Mount Hotham it would have been scary
Enjoy your R&R  :hatwave

Fog driving in that Russ. What if you mist a bend?  :grin

I am out the door and away in just a couple of minutes. Still a little crispy outside.  :runyay

If it's still crispy outside that means you burned the toast Kev. :Stirpot :Stirpot :Stirpot

Cheers Leo & Kev!

Yes, it was extremely scary....the fog was even worse than what that photo shows. I could barely see the yellow line.
Thankfully with Sue telling me when I needed to turn left or right we managed to stay on the road.  :beer

Home again a short while ago. Left a few minutes after 7am, no specific destination.



Was around 11 degrees when I left, fairly gusty wind, chill factor dropped temp to around 7 degrees. A light to medium overcast for the whole trip
Not much traffic, travelled northwest towards the SA border at Langkoop, then NE through Edenhope to Horsham and to Stawell and Ararat where I had a coffee break.
Headed south through Willaura and Glenthompson then Caramut and Koroit. A late lunch munch at Port Fairy and then the final run back to Portland where there was a slight mist of rain as I turned into town. Temps were around the same for the whole trip, but I had no need to turn on the grip heaters. I must be getting used to this kind of weather?
Was absolutely great to just get out there and ride. Got a shock when I checked the GPS at home. Apparently I got a trifle 'zippy' somewhere on my travels? Possibly between Casterton and Dergholm. Also noticed that I have not yet corrected the time on my camera for daylight saving.

That was a nice little ride, Kev!!!

As for the GPS, it must be faulty as I know you're a law abiding citizen...  :thumbs :whistle  :crackup
