A late night last night made for a slow and tired-ful ride. At least the wind was at my back for the ride out along the Djerring, so it felt as though I was going OK until I was leaving the showground.
I’ve always liked Dandenong showgrounds, they’re tucked away by the railway line at the border of Dandenong and Yarraman, alongside the creek – and now freeway – but have the look and feel of an old country showground. Always surprising that it hasn’t all been sold off and bulldozed. Today I arrived as a “Scottish Day” was packing up, a complete surprise to me, but there were cars and horse trailers and trucks all over the place, Scottish horses from Shetland pony size up to Clydesdale draft horse
Then it was north up the hills alongside the freeway, and into the wind, to Wellington road, turning back west for a very straight route back to Clayton and Oakleigh. I did not enjoy the wind
