Cold getting worse but still able to ride with the faster team (who only number 4 now). Again cold and showers both days. Yesterday was tough riding down to Tailem Bend despite some incredible down hill sections. Wind was so strong (cross wind ) that one dared not to ride fast in fear of being blown off the road. Some showers also made it very cold.
Old farm House
Managed to drive the Navara 50km to Peake were I grew up till the family moved to NSW some 48 years ago. Able to catch us with a cousin still in Peake and to see the farm house we lived in.
Got back a bit late and almost missed dinner that was provided by the local churches.
Today was mostly a flat ride with slight tailwind which allowed us to average almost 30km/hr average again. Showers again made the ride cold. Heavy rain coat on all day which keeps the rain out and the swet it so clothing got wet any way. Still waiting for a warm shower to warm up.
'A' Team coming in for morning tea.
Dinner again provided by locals. All very generous and welcome. Looking forward to a good sleep.
Heading towards the SA/Vic border tomorrow so that will be two state crossed.
