I've had a great week of mtb-ing. On the way to Daylesford it starting snowing, and ended up quite a depth the closer I got to Daylesford. We were to ride out and meet 3 amazing chicks (Jane, Amanda and Beth) who were riding on the Dry Diggings Trail from Castlemaine to Daylesford. The 3 of us procrastinated, made up excuses, dilly-dallied, then finally got out on the bike for a great ride. Cold, but great. I've committed myself to riding more of the Dry Diggings Trail when the weather is a bit warmer and dryer.

The sun shone for my Smiths Gully ride, even though the temp only reached 9 degrees for the entire ride. Still better than 4 degrees for the Daylesford ride! The trails were good, the climbs were good but hard, and I finished the ride with not a whole lot left in the tank.
Kira and I decided on a night ride at Lysterfield. We somehow picked up a lone rider in the car park named Damien, who rode with us. He didn't seem to mind our slowness, and didn't laugh too hard when I fell off. Overall, a great night ride mid-week.
