Spring is really here!

Started today with plan to attack Cudgera Creek Road over and back to do a bit of avoid the wind riding. But as I was beginning the descent into Burringbah I was held up by road works, the road was a slurry of gravel, and I didn't wish to grind my way back up through it and decided to take the Mooball-Pottsville Road which is now called "The Tweed Coast Way" isn't that quaint! It also looks as though the council is extending the tar up towards the summit of Cudgera Creek Road on the South Western side! Ah, more progress we don't need! The Cudgera Creek Mooball Road Map
Why do I say Spring has arrived? Another magpie attack this time along along Kanes Road and a couple of Plovers with a chick just past Wilman Road. I will need to remember this as they will start to swoop now that they are on the move from the nest. Also at home one of the Carpet Pythons has emerged from the roof, done its smelly old rat loaded spring shit from the rafters and is curled up on the same verandah rafters, nice!, which will keeping the dogs amused for a while.

It was a pleasant ride today, not noticing the quite strong sea breeze that had come up. I can say with total honesty that when it's windy I definitely like hills, any hills!
