Sunday - 53.3 km on the tandem out to Eildon and back. It was a lovely day today ... perfect riding weather. Sunny, 21C, and no wind to speak of. I wore a light jacket at first, but took it off about 3/4 of the way through the ride because I was overheating.

The trees are just beginning to turn. The evergreens (like the Eucalyptus and several other native trees) remain green all winter while the imported northern hemisphere trees lose their leaves in winter. The result, at this time of year, is quite effective --lots of trees with green leaves and several trees turning gold and red.
