Day 13 Nannup to Donnybrook

Written by albanygateway on Monday, 22 April 2013 08:51. Posted in Munda Biddi Trail

A few riders elected to stay at the local accomodation in Nannup last night. Some at the pub and some at the blue house b&b. Rave reviews about the blue house.
 
Fresh this morning but off at nine as 2 groups. Front group pushed hard and arrived in Donnybrook at the bakery for a hot pie and choc milk just after 1pm having covered 72 km. Boring ride with the first 27 km following the rail trail with a six inch wide sweet spot so had to focus and then mainly badly corrugated dirt roads after that. I found it hard going but we were really moving today with an average speed of 19km/hr. Sweet drafting oter riders in the forest. Nothing much else to share today.

Day 12 Photo 1Thursday, April 18, 2013
Up early after a great sleep and feeling much better today. Bit spooky in the hut last night when i laid in the bed of the old cottage at 1am and wondered how many people had been born and had died in that room over the years. Too tired to worry so I slept until daylight.

Day 11 Manjimup to Donnelly Mill

Written by albanygateway on Friday, 19 April 2013 12:27. Posted in Munda Biddi Trail

Slow start after yesterdays mammoth ride and the body was really feeling it today. We had a 10am departure time so most slept in. We rode 2 km down the road to a breakfast of scrambled eggs with truffle bacon hazelnut toast and coffee to give us inspiration to move on. Finally got away around 1130am. Very late start.

Day 10 Pemberton to Manjimup

Day 10 Photo 2There was a little bit of concern that some in the group would struggle to complete the required 82 km today within the required daylight hours. It was therefore decided to split the group in 2 with 10 of the faster riders in the front group. The second group were planning to meet the car with the bike trailer at alloted 10 km intervals afer the 50 km mark to pick up any that could not continue.
