After experiencing very warm conditions while travelling down from the North of the State, I should have remembered the sort of weather that only South Gippsland can put on, even in the height of Summer. A mighty wind was blowing in from Bass Strait, complete with low scudding grey clouds and lashing rain. Not really my favourite bike riding weather. The first job was to position the car at the end of the track, at Wonthaggi, so I stopped near the Kilcunda trestle bridge to get some photos of the bleakness. However, by the time I returned to the starting point at Anderson, blue skies had returned with cheery sunshine. The gale was still blowing, and from the direction it was intended to travel, but this was only a 16 km trip, so therefore manageable.
