East Killara Ride : October 28 2024

A slow start. Was going to go for a ride - got ready - went downstairs to find a flat front tyre. Same one as the one I changed over the day before with a worn tyre. Did the change - leak is really slow and not from a thorn or glass or rim tape. Might have pinched it. Got to say I was keen to skip riding - but ride I did

Rode down to East Killara - a flattish ride. Took the loop around the sports field to see if there was footpath access to the creek below. None but it is close a km loop on a wide path

Track has a range of gym facilities all the way around - nice view across the creek

Road runs high above the creek - this house has views over the bush below - a bit retro in style - hard to know how long ago - guessing 70 or 80 years

This is what happens to the old brick houses - render and paint

A bit of flower delight to ease the grey

A grand manor above

House for sale - did not photograph the house as there were people moving about - will be in the $2+ millions

Cycled past the historic Eryldene house with a fab jacaranda tree

No surprise to find the upcoming jazz festival is called Jacaranda Jazz. No idea if we will be here that weekend - it is walking distance

Good to have a few flattish rides to do locally. Did get hit 5 times by an aggressive butcher bird. Never had one of those hit me - maggies often but not butcher birds

Dinner: Spaghetti bolognese

Trade action: Bought PDN.AX, URNJ, URNM. Sold TUF.V
