Great ride yesterday, the climbs to Crafers made much less painful with the great Mt Barker Rd downhill run all the way back to Milanos Cafe. I needed that coffee when we got there.

Lucky Saddle Rd comes out after that section. I have only tried to ride that section once a long time ago on a mountain bike before it was sealed.

Good recommendation Paul - though Sheoak is a killer in the 20%+ section. Once past that (perhaps most would walk it as I have done many times!), it should be happier days.
Finally, I won't be out due to a head cold that I'm trying to shake.

Have you guys ridden Upper Sturt Rd before? The part after the golf course to Olave Rd is very narrow and twisty. Can I suggest turning into the park at the main entrance and riding along The Valley Rd to Saddle Hill Rd to Sheoak Rd (after the really steep part) meeting with Waverly Ridge Rd. It does still have some good hills and is a bit safer.
