From Rosemary and Katrina : in comparison to Day 1 it was easy riding ! The riding conditions in the morning were ideal with cloud cover, no wind and cool temperatures. First morning tea was at Walla Walla - some of us were not quite sure if this was in NSW or Victoria - and second morning tea (yes!) at the wonderfully named Burrumbuttock -this is a hybrid of two European and Aboriginal words meaning "multiple buttocks in padded shorts".
Photo quiz : Match the burrumbuttocks to the correct team member
Lunch was at an idyllic riverside park at the appropriately named Howlong (?NSW or Vic).

Too long !

We were joined today by an international rider - Jon Grundtmann - from Sweden. As there don't seem to be any Swedish cyclists of note, we asked Jon to suggest a new name for himself , and he has modestly suggested "Awesome".....
Awesome it is !

Awesome
