Exploring the other side of Lane Cove River ride : October 21 2024
A cool rainy morning. Best spent catching up on the investing accounting from options expiry on Friday. My wife was out early on babysitting duties. Wind did ease off and clouds opened
Got on the bike to go explore the other side of Lane Cove River - not done it in the 11 months we have lived here. Grand old house in the National Park at the bottom of a steep hill. Will walk it on the way back
Lane Cove River from the picnic area our side
View up the river from the road going down to the weir walkway
A mix of lichen on the rocks
Hibbertia from way back - got the wrong camera for close ups
Great North Walk passes this way. It is on my list of things to do - find segments easy to reach by train and find motels to sleep
Weir warning. Super wide walkway - why dismount? I did
Weir view below
And above. Rode all the way up Riverside Drive - super smooth road and easy gradients. First time riding this - have walked parts before
A few flannel flowers emerging - this one with a beetle
Only orchid type seen. Bonnet orchid leaf - no buds yet
Rode all the way to main gate and main road to check access along the busy Ryde Road. Would have to ride the busy road or the walkway to the first traffic lights and then cut over to quiet roads.
Running back down. While I did my ride up and back, 3 cyclists did 3 loops. They were not looking for orchids
Grand trees in the view down to the river
When they built the weir all the years ago, they found the fish populations were struggling. Built a series of fish ladders to help - this is one
Moorhen paddling at the weir
Pleased to explore this ride. Makes a good out and back ride. Race down the hill into the peace of the NP with its gentle grades and then work the hill home. It also gives acess to flattish rides around Macquarie University and beyond
Dinner: Chicken curry cooked the night before
Trade action: Bought a bunch of ASX uranium stocks and did all the covered calls

The beautiful places, the trees are diverse. The duck is very alone in the water. Amazing photography. Today 5k steps count, next day will get more steps
