Capital City Trail
All the way around the city
Despite heavy overnight rain and an unpromising weather forecast, today was another lovely summer day in autumn, sunny and warm. For a change of scenery we decided to do the Capital City Trail, a bike path that forms a ring all around Melbourne. It goes through some suburban parkland, past the zoo, then follows the Yarra.
Winds were light-ish (unless we had a headwind), allowing opportunities to shoot reflections.
Dights Falls is about the half-way point. There is rarely that much water coming down.
The bike path goes right through a city farm. These odd-looking goats with their long floppy ears were feeding and enjoying the sunshine.
Almost home. 31km, max speed 29.8 km/h, 2 hours. (Somebody bought me a cycle computer for Christmas.)
