Truck cabins at Melrose
The day (31st) threatened to begin badly with heavy dripping skies. In our wets ready for another day like yesterday with the forecast for more heavy rain. We were pleasantly surprised to have another day skirting the wet.
Mat lead Joe, Chris, Mick Colin & I along a goat track of a back road into the Flinders Ranges. What a fantastic ride. After some glorious scenery we rode into a town called Melrose. This is a 'must visit again' town. In fact thee entire area needs to be revisited as there are so many things to see. Accommodation built on old truck bodies gave a different feel to an old idea. Great pub for coffee & short trees with huge trunks. The Clare Valley was spectacular.
Peters home at Gawler for a BBQ lunch supplied by the local Goldwing club was a much appreciated diversion. An auction was held for a bike wash in Cooma by Andrew wearing the tutu, a beautiful etched glass & framed logo of the ride, paintball day for 10 people & cargo pants.
On then to the Lyndoch Hill resort where the gardens contained 30,000 roses, from every country in the world that has produced them. An estimated 2.5 million blooms on any given day when in full bloom. Beautiful.
