I travel a bit for work and my current Asian jaunt left me a Saturday to spend in Melbourne, where I had never been before. Found a shop that hired road bikes and decided I would head out with the bay to my right and keep riding until I had seen enough, then turn around and head back. Went bout 45kms out to Frankston, by which point the road was getting narrower and drivers less willing to share road space as those closer into town. Decided I had had enough and I needed to leave time to return the bike before the shop closed. Of course the trip back was dead into the wind. Still, a fine day, would do again.
