I don’t think I’ve been up this way for ages, my shoulder injury put a bit of a limit on the enjoyment of long climbs. If I’m really honest though, I’m just a bit over the drivers around Lorne, endless close passes and either completely oblivious or aggressively confrontational, especially on the hill up towards Benwerrin
Nevertheless, its a lovely climb when the traffic is light – as it was this afternoon, bumper-to-bumper traffic crawling slowly down the hill and into town, the same on the Great Ocean Road, but next to nothing going the other way. Up through the forest, a pause at the corner for a drink, then off along the Mount Sabine road and a gradual climb to the Erskine Falls road turn off. Then some more climbing to the old Falls Festival site before a corrugated descent for a while then rejoin the tarmac at the falls themselves and the fast descent back to town
