Ride on 18/6/2020
We had a very good turn out today with 21 riders. The weather was luverly, sunny, very crisp, no wind at first and a mild breeze later. The Bay bordered on the glassy. Rodney provided his usual excellent Indigenous Notes

Coffee & c. was had at the Brighton Baths where Joy joined us. It was very good to see Joy and great to hear she'll be back OHB in a cupola weeks or so. From the Baths some rode on further down the Bay Path to catch the train &/or have a longer ride while the rest of us rode back to the City via the Bay Path and Light Rail Path.

What a beautiful day. Ross must have lined up the weather gods again! We stopped at two places. First, the statue of Peter Norman (photo attached). Thanks to Rodney, we have information about this athlete. See his notes, Peter Norman Memorial.
The second stop was on top of the hill at Point Ormond where we attempted to match the features in Rodney's poster with what we could see from the lookout. We had morning tea at North Point before heading home via Port Melbourne and the rail trail to Jeff's Shed.
