The Epic- Molong- Temora 250km

Day-12
The Epic


Sometimes hope begins when some one says something that opens up apart of a closed idea. Eddies inspiration to make it to our goal drove us today.
Awoke early at molong and sent up a balloon it went up for a bit then shot off we had a leasurly start with coffee and hotel breakfast. We pedaled out got directions then traveled through a wooded area on the Manildra road.the going was easy and very picturesque. In Manildra we were checked out by some workers at the flour mill and photographed by others. We traveled on to Cudal across a high plain between two ridges. The wind dropped as the ridges deflected it. There was clear undulating pasture and the road really smooth. They were easy miles and a good, if a little unorthodox, way to see our country. We stopped for a coffee and a bite at Eugowra. Ben Hall, the infamous bush ranger, staged the biggest armed robbery of its time near there. I noticed I had tyre wear issues so I did a little rotation. We had attracted a little attention by then and were interviewed by a local press agent. We had the road to Goolagong under us and were soon being received by a couple of classes of the Goolagong school. From there we traveled carefully to ‘Henry Lawson’ country at Grenfell. We received exceptional service from Jason and the team at Beaurepairs at Grenfell who very kindly donated a new set of tyres for my flyke. We pushed on to Temora on their advice where we were welcomed by some of the flying community. As we were setting up camp, Gill and Mark, some friendly locals, invited us into there house to share a BBQ dinner with their family. We showed them some video on their big screen, then got back to the camp, to get ready for an early start an a crack at the Goal in Milburong.
