Last night I had the most lovely ride. On a crisp, clear, cold winter evening I rode up Mt Dandenong. Did the 1:20 twice, round the tourist road to Montrose and back home through Lilydale.
The full moon lit my way and the views over Melbourne's suburbs were spectacular. The roads were dry and Grace seemed to lift me away from all my cares. This course gives me a great workout with the two runs up the one in twenty, a few nasty hills on way home along the Maroondah and a really hare, fast, flat run from Montrose into Lilydale.
There are some definite benefits to riding in the outer suburbs. This is cycling at its most sublime.
