At 9.00am, on a cool showery Sunday morning eight brave soles are eager to start the ride from Westmeadows Bakery to University Hill (Bundoora) but were quickly stopped before they started with a puncture to fix, but soon we headed off along the Moonee Ponds Creek, past the Broadmeadows Health to Jacana Station where we joined the Western Ring Road, where the ride was easy and quick until just over Sydney Road we were stopped to fix another puncture, with a few hands on the job the repair was done quickly and we were back on track in record time. We were lucky to arrive at our coffee break with out much rain (just a few light drops). After our coffee we headed back the way we come with a detour to Mt Cooper, Bundoora Park and along Darebin Creek path where we had a close encounter with our black & white feathered friend and soon back to the Western Ring Road for our return trip only to find it a lot harder with a strong headwind. We arrived back at Westmeadows Bakery about 2.00pm and 52km later, many thanks to the riders that braved weather on the day (which was better than expected) and who made it an enjoyable ride.
