Well, I did 'ride' round the Darling Downs, with a team mate from RDS.
Here's the thing though...wombats have really strong legs....but they are short! This presents a bit of a problem on a bike...which is where my team mate came to the rescue and I accompanied her on her bike. I thought it was great fun and everyone seemed to have a good time.
I think there were about a thousand peddlers...and me! (yes I had a bike helmet). The trip left Toowoomba on Saturday 5 September and travelled via Goombungee, Kaimkillenbun (don't you love that name??), Dalby, Oakey, Pittsworth, Warwick and Clifton, and ended in Toowoomba on Sunday 13 September.
I was exhausted, (probably my team mate was too!!), but there was some nice scenery and lots of friendly people. Sometimes it was a bit chilly...but you get that out there! I had my waistcoat from the US.
Cycling is a great way to keep fit (I mean look at me!!) and if you want find out more about this great experience go to http://www.bq.org.au/ or want to try the next one which is from Yeppoon to Bundaberg I think...check it out.
I'll be posting some pictures soon.
