October 25th 2010

.. packed up after a cold night and headed up toward Marysville stopping first at Healesville for a wander and a coffee, then rode to Marysville and had lunch up there, beautiful ride in through Black Spur, both behaving and keeping under speed limits as Victorian Police are extremely vigilant and have no tolerances like NZ’s 10k’s, if you’re goin fast look out.

Marysville is undergoing extensive redevelopment after the fires tore through the town in ¹hour killing 30 0f its 500 inhabitants (killed a total of 173 in all) Its hard to get your head around a tragedy like that. As we rode past all the trees that had been scorched looked like they had vines growing on them but were told its whats called stress growth where shoots start sprouting up the trunk of the trees.
