Gravel riding

Out in the morning to ride some of the back gravel roads in the Adelaide hills, around Mt Barker. A great place to do hill climbing, with some fast downhill runs as well. Managed just over 12km, in cool damp conditions: a great long holiday weekend here, has been raining for most of it. Finished off on asphalt, as a lot more of the hill area around Mt Barker is being redeveloped for housing, so the gravel roads are been covered in asphalt.



Flat, down then up.
Rest, before another hill climb.
