We had 15 riders today who headed off from Blackburn station in the superb warm and sunny conditions
and enjoyed the green and leafy environs. At the drive-in sculptures we rested while Rodney delivered another great briefing on the First Nations heritage of the area as well providing some background and commentary on the Victorian Truth Commission/Yoo-rrook Justice Commission announced earlier this week. Link is here.

A most enjoyable morning tea & c. was had at the Bells and Whistles Cafe. We sat outside in the shade and chatted away until someone noticed it was a quarter to one. Riding on some trained it back from Kooyong or E Malvern station while others rode on.
