After thunderstorms before sunrise I was pessimistic about how many riders would actually turn up for today’s mid week ride. Around 20 riders did so and were rewarded with as good a day for riding the Otways as you could wish for. We completed a circuit – from Geelong to Gellibrand for morning tea, then onwards to Apollo Bay via Lavers Hill and the Great Ocean Road. After lunch at the Apollo Bay bakery we headed back to Geelong through Forrest with a brief stop at the West Barwon Dam. All up, around 310 kms in gorgeous Autumn weather.

Congratulations on the new Triumph Geoff!

Actually there were two new bikes, pictured side by side below.
