So... this happened tonight.
I knew it was going to be hilly but this was a shock. 😲

Riding around Canberra on some bitterly cold mornings provided some good photo opportunities of this fair city (and its neighbour).

A nice scene from my morning commute today. #Canberra can really turn on the effects sometimes.

A big ride out south, towards Tidbinbilla, and I rode a couple of sections I've never done before - visiting the tracking station and a ride around the nature reserve.
It was a great ride on a beautiful autumn day here in the ACT - mist on the river and clinging to the high slopes, sunshine in a big, open sky and a light, cool breeze. It's good to be alive!

At 888m, Mount Majura is the North Canberra's highest peak.
Unlike Mount Ainslie it is inaccessible by car. You can walk up the various paths but they are only suitable for MTBs (and even then, only on the Centenary trail), but there is an access road, secured at the bottom by a locked gate. Lift your bike over and you're off! It's one of inner Canberra's tougher climbs but, after hitting Mount Ainslie first this morning, it seemed 'easier'. It's an unrelenting 2.8km climb with an average grade of 8%.
At the top is a radar installation for the local airport as well as some spectacular views!
After the two climbs, I then headed north to Gunghalin and Belconnen before heading home. Distance: 100km, elevation 1240m.
