Calliope Creek

Wednesday 19 Dec 2018

We all had leftover stew for breakfast, and then it was goodbye and on again. But first a few pictures.

They are leaving as well, back to their Biloela property and then 2 weeks with Therese’s parents in Sydney.

It was a relatively easy route today, mostly good dirt roads, 5 km on a smaller track and a bit of a steep climb, so there was some pushing involved. A bit different landscape, it all used to be dairy country until the market collapsed many years ago.

I got to the first Calliope Ck crossing at noon, had a swim and a rest, and then decided to continue to the 2nd crossing.

I’m glad I did, it’s a bit more rustic and the road seems less busy, although it’s only a few kms from the Dawson Highway. Another nice swim, cup of soup, blogging, and it’s time for tea. What variation of the same shall we have today?

Total 62k, just over 5 hours riding, 545m of uphills
