Glenorchy Dec3-4/08









It is challenging as hilly and either a headwind or crosswind. On one high exposed bluff the wind blows me off the bike as I am climbing (we guess maybe 60-80KM winds). I struggle to walk my bike around the corner.

I am very anxious about continuing riding but there is nowhere to camp until Glenorchy and fortunately after lunch, the hills are lower so it is not as bad as that one corner.

It is a pretty ride. The forcast is wet and as it is raining in the morning we stay another night. It clears up in the afternoon so we take a walk around the village which despite it's size has 3 gift shops, 3-4 eateries and some accomodation.
