The day after the smoke I went on another afternoon distance ride to boost endurance that took me out past

dalekboy and shazgirl where I stopped for a most enjoyable chat.

By the time I left it was getting windy and heading towards night. It looked like we might get some rain but alas it didn't eventuate.

I did a couple of nifty photos of the sun setting over/behind Telstra Tower on Black Mountain and the best (IMO) is beneath the cut.
