Day 6 – Glen Innes to Grafton

Today was a great day as we descended from the Table Lands down into Grafton. The good thing was a lot of the morning and some of the afternoon was spent descending the Gibraltar Range.

We stopped for lunch at the Raspberry lookout which was a stunning backdrop for morning tea. From there we had a 14km decent which was really fun reaching speeds of up to 65 kmh.

Our lunch break was at the beautiful Mann River where we ate up for the journey into Grafton.

Even though there was a lot of decent there was also a lot of climbing. We ascended 1800 meters and decended about the same amount

All in all the day was pretty good for me  my legs are really strong and my body is holding up well with a liberal coating of BUTT CREAM each morning!

Tomorrow we are off to Byron Bay which is about the same length so I am looking forward to a great scenic ride.
