This deserved its own spot, as I feel it illustrates the serenity, silence and beauty of a long climb on a quiet road through the Australian bush #aussieas #bikefriday #healesville #pantongap #cycling #bicycleclimb #outdoors

1st stop on the way to Healesville @yarravalleychocolaterie ... It might be early but could it ever be to early for the "Great Wall of Chocolate"?🍫☕️ #chocolate #yarravalleychocolaterie #yarravalley #holiday #theregoesmydiet #willcycle

Plug this into your app @blackdogriderneil - a light refreshment before we go in search of cider & beer #hotchocolate #2ndbreakfast #macarons #yarravalleychocolaterie

I know the house manual says not to feed me... But I won't tell if you don't🐕 #goldenretreiver #rory #yarravalley #breakfastguest #dogsofinstagram

And when the riding is done in the Yarra valley, it's time to recover with a champagne lunch from @chandonaus (along with some take home goodies) and a #ginandtonic tasting paddle from the @fourpillarsgin distillery in #healesville 😋 #visitvictoria #y

Good morning from Mt Buffalo, Victoria. 5am start to make the 21km climb in time for sunrise. 1013m elevation gained and another tick off the cycling list. Wasn't able to do this ride on my birthday (Tuesday) as planned so today was the day!! Super Happy
