Due to my absence Liz has provided both report and photos, thanks Liz.
A small group of Sadsacs left Maffra for Heyfield exactly at 1000 hrs with Jim reminding us that "we are the lucky ones". Mild weather and only a gentle breeze made for very pleasant cycling through the lush dairy farmland. Soon we were at the lunch stop enjoying Dave's famous carrot cake and Heather's yummy biscuits. Graham enjoyed showing us the Rotary History Pavement and the Keene family bricks in this paved area of the Heyfield park. The ride home took us over Blores Hill with Dave's speedo registering 33 km/ hr as he crested the top of the hill after powering up the rise. Ken clocked 64 km/hr on the descent with the remaining riders in hot pursuit. The ride calendar advised us the total distance would be 65 km however we were back at the Port of Maffra in 50 km ( I think we followed the right route). No one was in any hurry to go home so we moved on to afternoon tea at one of the local Maffra cafés.
Next ride is from Briagolong on the first day of winter.
