The Place

On a suburban street in Narre Warren North.

I’m not sure why I decided to do this one – it was a work night, a fair way off and one of the wettest nights for a long while.

I set off after work and it was still raining, but also still light so not so bad. In fact the tree-lined eastern suburbs were quite picturesque in the rain.

However, soon after reaching the Princes Highway I got a flat tyre. This was annoying but not a disaster as I knew I had a spare… only I didn’t! Not even a puncture repair kit. In despair I tried to decide between giving up or taking the train there and then walking.

Suddenly I looked up: there in front of me across the street was a bike shop! But it was closed.

More to come…

Here's a map of my route. Total distance = 55 km (including 5 kms to get home from the station).
