Queenscliff and Manly, 11am

We cycled to Manly again today.


The beach looked so inviting, I wish we'd worn bathers/swimmers (or whatever you call them in your part of the world).

We arrived as Nippers was finishing up for the morning,

... as people were thronging to the beach,


... and just as the Cole Classic started at Manly beach.

The south end of Manly was closed due to dangerous conditions this morning so the Cole Classic had to start and finish from Shelly beach a short walk away. All other beach goers seemed to simply ignore the 'beach closed' signs.

What a great looking day. We have had nothing but overcast and wet all year so far.

I love seeing where your weekly cycling leads you to :-)

That looks fun. I too love your cycling trips. New visions of your part of the world with every trip.

What was it like going up the hill from The Spit?

Were people "thronging to the beach"...or thonging to the beach??

;) couldn't resist.

Such a great thing you are doing with the kids.

I have trouble riding around the block at the moment let alone from where you live to Manly - I am simply not bike fit!
