I guess the rain from the other morning has freshened up the air a bit and certainly better visibility now

Lots of ridgeline riding today, this is the 1081 just off the 1169 end

The old narrower road has been widened to turn it into this but work appears to have stopped now with the new wide bit married to the old existing narrow bit.
Perhaps they have run out of money

The most surprising thing about todays ride was the fact that the 1333 has been cleared of all the loose gravel that has plagued it for years

At the junction of the 1333/1257 there is a brand new wide bridge replacing the temporary wooden one here last year

Todays is the 21st consecutive days ride since I got to Nan and the first one that didnt explore a new unmapped track, just a fun ride on old familiar territory today

Now THAT is something I really like the look of..... thanks Colin, I'll keep that one for Green Season!
 
Yes, I am too looking forward to do this loop when I plan to visit Nan.
All these Tony's food pics already make my mouth water!
 
Nice loop Colin, good to here they have at last cleaned up the road and hopefully filled in the potholes on every apex :ride:
