Spring has realllllly Sprung

Today's little cruise I saw 2 Echidnas on the sides of the Road. One even crossing the busy Clothiers Creek Road, I  waited and stood guard for traffic until it made this one made it's way to the other-side. I have been noticing Carpet Pythons but they are not yet very active, night time temps have still been in the low   teens. I also managed to ride Wattie Bishop Road at 40-43km/hr (realy good tail wind) but made up for it when I turned into the next open section with the headwind dropping me to 18km/hr.

Aside: I saw a 2008 19" Elwood SE, bought last January, on Ebay today and put a bid in but was outbid. I am pretty sure it was the Seller setting a reserve but I was not going to pay $250.00 (+) on a second hand hybrid which is a superseeded model, no warrantee and no known history. The winning bid was for $255, and I am sure it will not be ridden by the person who did win the bidding! All their Feedback Messages show they resell of most if not all of the items purchased!

I must Remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch!
