1st April 2009, my garden.

Tuesday 14th April, was a beautiful day. It was the sort of day that I wished I was riding through the hills, instead of working.

When work finished, I turned right, instead of left which is the normal way home. I ended up beside the Huon, heading out toward Judbury; fast, winding, dirt road, and beautiful countryside.

At Jud creek, I crossed the Huon and headed back in toward town along the Huon again, then took a track south, leaving the river.

I navigated by the sun; a rarity here because of the high hills blocking its view. So long as I headed south and / or east I was right. I just took any interesting tracks that were going in those directions.

The tracks were generally fast, with lots of corners. A few were dead ends – finishing at a loading area for log trucks or a gate.

After an hour and a half of this, riding in isolation, I rode around a locked boom gate and hit a road. I headed east, and started to recognise the outskirts of Geeveston. From here I was five minutes from home.
