On a cold Monday morn, two travellers well-worn, set forth on a trip.
One astride a BM, the other 'twas on the Mighty ST Flagship.
As the Land of Queens was their destination, they ventured with spirit and little hesitation.
After six days on the road, and five nights of overload, they dropped anchor in Esk, to be united with comrades from the AusTouring Forum
And continue their adventures without fear of boredom.

Monday 16 March.
Melbourne to Tumut went something like this:


Our route took us via Yea, Mansfield, Whitfield, Myrtleford (lunch), and Happy Valley, and then somewhere near Dederang where Derek looks for, and finds, a geocache


I take some photos and have a close encounter with some of the locals


We continue via Ganya Gap, Jingelic and Tumbarumba where we drop-off a coffee mug to JohnG (gidday John), then overnight in Tumut.

Today's tally:
605km
3 - geocaches

Left Kandos before dawn, roads a bit damp, a few kangaroos, travelled at around 75km/h to 80km/h for the first hour. Stopped at Bylong for breakfast but store closed, on to Sandy Hollow, Shell roadhouse / store open, good bacon & eggs and pot of tea for breakfast, Mmmmm.....

The Bills fans think this is pretty special - I suppose it is ......

We turned right at Uralla to check out the Chapel at Gostwyck:

I've been through Wyangala a few times. A couple of years ago Wyangala dam was almost high enough to reach the spillway. About 10 years ago it was so low from there it was dirt as far as they eye could see.
