Melbourne

The ride from Wangaratta down to Melbourne North was via the Hume highway so nothing fantastic to report just a reasonable highway and a 110 km speed limit. However the nightmare of Melbourne city to navigate is another story. My advice is if you are on a motorbike give Melbourne city a wide berth, those bloody hook turns and the GPS drove me insane,having said that the Metro YHA is a nice place to stay even if it is a little busy. I got rain yesterday and after I arrived at Melbourne and parked my bike we had an electrical storm with hail and wind, a pretty impressive show. I was going to go and have a look around the city this arvo however it is still raining so I decided to catch up on my washing.

I was going to download the pictures I took today however this pc I am using belongs to the YHA and it won't read my sd card, because it is ancient, not the card the Pc....

  1. Shame about the pictures Steve but never mind.
    We heard about the freak hail storm in Melbourne on the news tonight and we all thought about you. As for your GPS? What do you expect when you have John Cleese telling you where to go....and no, he won't carry your bags for you once you get to your destination, Lol, take care, stay dry (good luck with that)
    be safe. Love Ann and everyone up here in the "once" sunshine state.
