Day 4 Kingston - Edenhope

Massive day today, and we are both really happy to be past it.
Total of 155km in about 6 hours of actual riding time, with a good deal of it in the rain!






On the upside it stayed calm all day so we kept the pace up pretty well.

Pub meal in Kingston was pretty ordinary last night, but we managed to get to bed early and slept heaps better with a heater! Kingston Caravan park was really good facility, and tonight's in Edenhope is probably even better.

Today was really well broken up with Lucindale at 50km, Naracoorte at 100km and the destination at 150km. Absolutely pumped when we made Naracoorte by just after midday, so we knew we would make it okay even if we had to take it easier in the afternoon.





About to head up to the pub for a feed, and the bakery opens at 6.30 in the morning so we can have breakfast before we head off to Horsham tomorrow - Edenhope looking after us.

In total we are now over half way through our 850km in both time and distance, and although we are both sore, we are really no worse than we where Sunday. About an hour of stretching each night is a must, as well as some reciprocal massage helping us recover.

Only real concern now are hills into Maryborough, but we are definitely relaxing a bit more now.
