A
cheery crew assembled at Cottontree at 8 a.m. Plenty of parking and
picnic tables for lunch later.
Weather
very pleasant, blue skies, sunshine and a mild northerly wind.
We
cycled along the shared bike/walking track through Maroochydore
following the Maroochy River which we then crossed and headed up the
excellent new bike track that runs parallel to the Sunshine Motorway.
We made
a detour through the quiet picturesque streets of Twin Waters
rejoining the main cycle track near Mudjimba, then followed the track
north to Marcoola where we stopped for coffee refreshments and a well
needed rest after which we headed back along the same track missing
the detour into Twin Waters. We were happy to have an assisting wind
for part of the way arriving back at Cottontree where we had a
picnic lunch, refuelled tummies and rested legs before our drive
back to Bribie Island.
A
lovely ride with the ocean in view most of the way. Total kms – 36
return.
