Out for my afternoon break while working from home and not feeling real well. Fairly strong wind blowing, and contrary to what Klimat.app is saying it was most definitely from the west. Thought about riding off into it but I’ve been up towards Caulfield plenty of times recently so I went off the other way down the Djerring trail – a lovely ride with the wind at my back! Passed a crew of Monash council engineering staff walking the trail between Oakleigh and Clayton, pointing at parts of the path and writing on clipboards, I’m hoping they’ll fix the drainage and flooded sections, it would have been good if their walk was after the rain so they could see it all first hand! Turned around at Springvale and tried to use the streets back through the suburb to get a bit of shelter from the wind but there’s no real shelter, and the roads curve around and refuse to get to Westall road so its all a bit of a waste of effort, spitting me out onto Centre road which isn’t the most enjoyable of rides, then the rest of the way back up the Djerring trail and passing the council staff again
