all back from dinner at the local pub, eating cake made by Mrs Azza very nice,

had a magic ride on the Alpine Way blue sky and 15C no wind , 350km of twisty roads
postman Pat had to leave us to return for work and Mrs Azza chose to have a rest day (and to make a cake)

a fuller report to come some of the other will no doubt add photos in a day or 2

Corryong to Omeo was ok. Bit corrugated corryong end but no drama. Let B/dale at 7.30, stopped fuel / coffee Jindabyne and corryong, home Cassilis at 12.35.
So long as dry really cant see why it couldnt be used as a "link" between possible southern and northern tdut ride options??----

Yes I think the wet would be the only issue, it's the most difficult part of route planning if we include some dirt links to the good bits, I'll try a few roads on Google earth and see if I can get a few 5-6hr loops and fine it down from there

Two more bods are now home safe-n-sound... albeit a bit damp; seems our trip was destined to be bookended by precipitation... thankfully the rain was only light.

Thanks to all for a great weekend.

Pic's to follow soon.
