I stayed at Phillip Island the week before, with Terry for most of the week and Dick for the Wednesday night. So we had to come home anyway, so through Omeo sounded like a plan. Dick went back to Sunbury and we met up at Yea on the Friday for the run through Mansfield, Whitfield, and up to Omeo for Friday and Saturday nights. I came via the Black Spur, which was still wet, a bit of snow on the side of the road, lots of slippery bark, and suicidal lyre birds running all over the place.
While the week before was windy and rainy, the weather turned it on for Friday through Sunday. Probably the best weather I have come across for the High Country. Sunny, cool at night but quite nice during the day.
The Saturday was spent going from Omeo to Falls Creek via the Mitta Mitta road, Bright, then up over Hotham again. A few pictures below.
On the way back Terry and I did the run towards Bruthen along with Dick, where we parted company as Dick was going back to Sunbury. Again very nice riding weather.
And so back to prepare to go to Uralla the weekend after....
