Melbourne Cup Weekend

With only 4 weeks to go until the Great Victorian Bike Ride, we thought we should try to ramp up the training this weekend with a new ride for us across to the Western side of the bay. To get across the other side of the bay we took the little red punt which travels under the Westgate bridge. We got as far as Altona before Bonnie started to get scared of the locals.

Yep, always up for making a fool of myself in front of strangers

(I'm trying to hold the bridge up, not a bad attempt I thought. Warwick didn't get it so I thought I should spell it out!)


What better way to finish off a ride than with icecream?
