We had twelve riders on the Monthly ride to Drysdale .This is a very good track mostly bitumen , with the gravel sections very well maintained .Kevin took us along the new bridge with just a small section of the ride along the road with traffic . He also took us into Drysdale the back way,past the odd looking garden with the stuffed clothes hanging on the fence ,missing the busy main road.We went our separate ways for lunch . Three schoolboys were doing a survey on cyclists and we were happy to supply them with some answers .After coffee we went to the CFA where we had arranged to meet .It was a beautiful sunny day with no wind and mainly a downhill run back to Geelong .This ride is about 50 kls  long and no hills .Thanks to Kevin for a great ride.And also a thank you to the drivers .
