So terrified was I by the Ferret's demand for pictures when I first posted on this site that I now travel everywhere with my trusty Nikon Coolpix S8000 slung around my neck on a lanyard. I take photos like a maniac, just in case.
People are now asking who is the idiot who rides everywhere one-handed.
So thanks for that, Ferret.
I've mentioned the Bellbird Creek Tea House before. It's a good place for me to go to get a coffee because it encourages bikers, there are usually others there, and there are plenty of ways to get there that are fun rides. So, when I want to escape for a coffee and have a bit of a ride to get there, that's where I go.
Here's a map of a trip there and back last week. The round trip was around 72 miles.
Here's some photos. The first shows the local idiot who rides everywhere with one hand.
The mountain to the left is right behind the town where I live. It's about 1400 ft high. Every year there's a running race from the centre of the town to the summit and back. The record's about 23 or 24 minutes. Takes me more than an hour to walk up the damned thing.
Here's the mountain again.
Believe it or not, this is the major road from Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, to Cairns, the northernmost city. To be fair, it is dual carriageway until about 15 kms south of where this was taken and is gradually being extended.
