Distance: 148km
Ascent: 2,293m
The day consisted of rolling hills with a few steep climbs thrown in for good measure. We rode the Maroondah highway crossing Lake Eildon, stopping at Bonnie Doon, Yea, Strath creek and Broadford. As we got closer to civilisation towns became more frequent giving us the opportunity to take onboard drinks and food. This particular morning was extremely peaceful as our resident PR and doctor Paul Bennet was not at his best, having been up all night with sickness. For him it was a hard morning for us it was blissfully quite. However, as the day wore on he bounced back and the noise level steadily increased. Well done Paul most people would have give up at this stage but you are a tough determined guy.
Whilst we have mentioned our support driver Phil several times for his tireless support, we think it only fitting that this days blog should be dedicated to him and his superbly logo'd vehicle. We are sure that without Phil we would have had many more close shaves and found the whole experience twice as hard. Well done Phil, all the boys would like to say a great big thank you.
