Trans Oceania 2014 - Nelson to Port Fairy | Saturday, November 29 - 133km

I took the van to the lunch spot around 80km out leaving a 53km ride into Port Fairy. As it is election day in Victoria, I stopped at the first polling booth I saw and filled out the absentee paperwork for my electorate. Where I voted happens to be in Denis Napthine's electorate..


There was the usual headwind and morning chill but, once the sun broke through, the cycling conditions were quite pleasant. I stopped to check out the wind farm as seemed befitting..

 


 
The bulls watched me pass by and it was time for coffee and cake at the first opportunity!
 
 

















I eventually made it to Port Fairy and, after a short 2km ride around town, I headed to my cabin with 55km on the clock and feeling quite good about today's ride.
 
 


















After showering, I walked with John into town for supplies and we reserved a table at Ramellas for an early dinner.

Rest day tomorrow so plan to explore Port Fairy!
