Third day at Lorne, third option for riding out – inland, down the GOR, up the GOR. Today, up the GOR to the lighthouse, with a minor detour at a tiny stub of a bush track that I’ve seen when riding and driving up Big Hill. Jump the armco, lift the bike over, pedal off into the scrub … then around a few curves and up a few steep gravelly pinches as the track curves up and around and seems to be heading back towards the GOR, but I couldn’t tell for sure. Wasn’t really in the mood for a full exploration and didn’t want to find myself in the backyard of someone’s rural retreat so I turned around and rolled back to the tarmac for the more usual ride over to Aireys Inlet and up to the lighthouse, then back via the Fairhaven SLSC and a coffee. Checking the map later and I’m fairly sure that the track will rejoin and come back out on one of the side roads … I’ll add it to my todo list
