Farrell Flat to Auburn

Distance 49km

It rained a fair bit last night, and it was pretty cold. I got up and carried stuff to the BBQ shelter and started breakfast. The sun shone into the BBQ shelter and it was quite warm, so in the end I had everything drying in the sun

I headed off late at 9:40am towards Clare on the bitumen road, I was wary of going down any muddy dirt roads considering the rain we had over the last two days. It rained a little bit on the way to Clare, with a couple of hills to cross.

I stopped for lunch at the Subway in Clare, then headed down the Reisling bike trail. The trail is a steady upwards climb up to its midpoint. There I broke another spoke, which was the first one for 3 days. I fixed that and headed gently downhill to Auburn Caravan Park.
