Mountain bike trail, Bike tracks in the snow near the Bayview Extension at Pottery Rd. Likely will be developed VERY soon...
This last picture, named "biketrack", was taken on the tractor trail about
200 feet east of the county road:
Rühstädt ist der storchenreichste Ort Mitteleuropas (laut Eigenwerbung). Hier gibt es mehr Störche als in Köln Tauben!

Queensland and the city of Brisbane has seen some of the worst flooding since 1974, and it is now time for the clean up effort to begin. Mud and silt cover many roads that were cut off by the flooding, and it will be a while before everything is back to normal.
The volunteering effort is massive and looks to help everyone effected by the floods. If you wish to donate please head to www.qld.gov.au/floods

I took this picture while researching a Financial Times article found at www.ft.com/cms/s/0/075f0478-dddc-11de-b8e2-00144feabdc0.html and an audio slideshow found at www.ft.com/cms/s/0/e844abb4-dddc-11de-b8e2-00144feabdc0.html
Das ist eigentlich der Limes (genauer: der obergermanisch raetische Limes). Er macht seinem Namen immer noch alle Ehre und bildet eine Grenze ... Aber wer sein Bike liebt, der schiebt, äh, trägt es :-)
Auf alle Fälle nicht so einfach mit den Satteltaschen, da drüber bzw. durchzukommen.

Plenty of uphill ahead. This track's pretty mean in terms of climbing, but after about two and a half hours of mostly climbing, we were treated to a nice long downhill section down to the Cardrona Pub.
Went for a ride from Eltham N. to Diamond Creek via the bike path. One problem, the bridge at Eltham N. park was down. The detour up Wattle Tree road was an unexpected hill climb. Rode into DC, went and re-photographed my old PS. Last did this in 2008 and boy had it changed. A lot more buildings but less open space.
Scavenger Challenge - 10. How or what do you recycle? Make it look good!
on the cycle track by the river I found a drink container that had been thrown away - after my shot I through it in the recycle bin

Glad I had to be out early that morning coz I saw a lot of the snow before it got too messed up. Less slippery cycling on the unridden bits.
Very hard to fight the urge to stop and build snowmen though. Only one snowball thrown by kids hit me while I was cycling.
Looking towards the Queenscliff lighthouse and Port Phillip Bay with Arthurs Seat on the Mornington Peninsula in the background. The sand is easy to ride on when the tide goes out and you can ride nearly all the way to Queenscliff on the sand or the bike trail from Point Lonsdale.
At Elvis's cafe on Gympie Terrace, Noosa River, Queensland, Australia. Managed to catch a glimpse of Elvis as well :-)

Normally I'm not in favour of this sort of thing at all, but this is a bit different. Our countryside ranger, Iwan, and a bunch of enthusiastic volunteers are creating a proper bike track. So far they've collected an absolute mountain of scrap metal, cleared large areas of rubbishy scrub, sycamore etc, created wonderful fences woven of skinny branches and drawn up plans for something pretty wonderful. Next step is to grub up the stumps.
The site's best trees have been kept, like a big old oak and some spindly birches.
The Parenzana or Porečanka is one of the nicknames of a defunct narrow gauge railway (operating between 1902 and 1935) between Trieste and Poreč (at that time Parenzo, hence the name Parenzana), in present-day Italy, Slovenia and Croatia.
The railway followed a meandering course across the Istrian countryside, with skilfully engineered embankments and viaducts negotiating the peninsula’s notoriously up-and-down terrain.
The process of converting the former track into a foot- and cycle-path was begun in 2006, with a highly scenic 60km section of the railway (“Parenzana I”) in central Istria receiving most of the initial attention. Tunnels and bridges along the route were restored and made safe for visitors. A second phase (“Parenzana II”), revitalizing the stretch from Vižinada, 10km southwest of Motovun, to Poreč, was completed in 2012.
Taking a quick rest... you can see by this point we're among some Spaniards, which at high speed were quite exciting to dodge round. Think of them as a clump of green kitchen knives and you're pretty close to how tyre-friendly they are :)
