Up just after dawn and with a quick cereal breakfast enjoyed, it is on the bike to try and beat what looks to be inclement weather for the day.<\/h3>\n

When I camped the previous night I had not realised that I was on top of a hill and so the long downhill run out of the pine forest was a welcome start for the day. In fact, most of the morning was spent with a succession of downhill runs followed by another crest to reach.<\/p>\n

The run down into Echunga was a pleasant ride where I even had a chance a chat to. a local horse who was intent in checking that I was on the correct track.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
