Today is a cruisey day, a tidy 700km odd day to meet a bunch of like minded long distance riders for dinner in Cobar before heading out tomorrow morning for the Memorial at Netallie Rest Area just west of Wilcannia NSW.
A beautiful day to be out on Dudley a little fresh so the heated suit is needed for now and off we head (Dudley & I) to Holbrook through Lankey Creek before crossing over and heading up the back way to Wagga. Into Wagga for fuel and to grab coffee (naturally) and some pastries for tomorrows morning tea at the Memorial.
Out of Wagga, through Temora, wave through West Wyalong before coming to Unagarie where I pulled up under a tree to take a pic of the Big Sherrin Football (11:30am), have a stretch and a drink before heading off again. Feeling a tad warm but a little refreshed, we head off again to Lake Cargelligo.
Into Lake Cargelligo for fuel, grab some lunch and in dire need of the public facilities. I ask a serviceman (ambo or fire not sure) if there were public facilities in town, have the usual chat….you on your own, where you headed, have a great day and I was off.
Had a nice break in the Apex rotunda at the park opposite the information centre, then set off to grab a Silo Art pic on the way out of town (12:51pm)
Dudley and I headed north on the Tipping Way towards Cobar feeling good and looking forward to seeing our friends tonight for dinner.
The roads are long, straight and mostly flat with some undulations thrown in for good measure. It’s a beautiful day to be out riding around, listening to country music and enjoying the head space.
Unfortunately, we didn’t make dinner and the end of Dudley’s and my ride concludes 12km south of Mount Hope on the Tipping Way.
