The Cormanus Chronicles: 8 of 2017

The map [url=https://drive.google.com/open?id=1anXtbErVgMa820xcr_IDXXMjDkQ&usp=sharing]is here.
My wife and I are heading away for 5 weeks so there won’t be any CB time for Cormanus. I thought I’d better get one last ride in before we go. I decided on a circle of the local mountains.
It was a glorious Day and Big Willy looked imposing as I rode past.

Having made my way to Samford, I turned left and headed for Mt Glorious. There’s a very steep and winding ascent and I wanted it to myself. The omens were not good.

Luckily, they both turned off.

It’s much better when you’re not following things.

I had coffee (in a cup) and bacon and eggs (on a plate) at the Mt Glorious Café during which time Marc, Dani or a wannabe arrived.

Other chaps stood around in the sun talking wisely.

I pressed on through the bush, down the very steep Northbrook Parkway

Until I came to a patch of freshly resurfaced road at which point I decided to turn around.

After a wonderful ride back up the hill, I discovered the Western Window.

Marc, Dani or the wannabe was still relaxing.

More trees.

A great view east to the end of the world. Well, it is flat, isn’t it?

And Big Willy still glowing in the early afternoon sun.
