With everyone safely down the worst part, we tackled the last bit of the descent

Back on the sandy roads for some much needed airflow over radiators, oil cooler (on the only REAL  bike) and sweaty bodies

We pulled into a classy lunch spot and had a look at the menu for an early lunch. Luckily alcohol sales in rural areas are not governed by the same regulations as my local Tops.....

These granite outcrops are intimidating, whether your ascending or descending, they always manage to get the heart rate up a bit

I don’t like standing at the foot of these for too long and staring at what awaits...... just hit it!

I remember the first time I went up this rock.... LDBA 2019. I was leading our group at the time and navigating  gps tracks that were provided for the event. As I arrived at the foot of the climb, I stopped and told my fellow riders that I’ve made a mistake..... there’s no way that the track can lead up this rock [emoji48][emoji48]
