Bethungra - Shellharbour. Still, cool, clear after a windy night. Very low on water last fill was Avoca. Stopped at Yass for coffee lunch at Marulan truck stop, 98km to go. Booked in to ShellHarbour Beach CP for a week. Saw Brad on the way here, just below The Pass, he was on the way up to work at Mossvale going the other way.
Whilst here I walked the beach and rode the really nice bike paths and had dinner with Brad Kelly and her parents, nice. A bit of maintenance on the water tanks and other misc routine stuff.
Moved to Corrimal Beach CP, nice grassy out of the wind, quiet.
Decided a long ride along the coast would be good. Rode to the station and put the bike on the train to Otford. After 10 stations I'm starting to worry it could be too far but its just 25km south on the coast road, back home. From the Otford station at about 1030am a steep 1.5km hill probably the worst of many to Bald Hill lookout. Along Sea Cliff Bridge again. Interested to see all the padlocks had been removed from the rails since last time. Then lunch at 11am Austinmer beach then on on home to Corrimal Beach CP by 1230pm. Nice ride.
Scattered cloud still warm. Went swimming with the boogie board then did some laundry. Read most of the day.
