Munda Biddi Trail: Stage 1: Mundaring to Collie




Maps encourage boldness. They're like cryptic love letters. They make anything seem possible.
         (Mark Jenkins)





'Went back to have another crack at the Munda Biddi Trail. Unlike the last time, where I traveled hard and fast (only completing 1/3 of Stage 1), this time round I intended to travel... umm... hard and slow (to cover more ground)  :-D





Since the previous ride in 2007 (old map), half of Stage 2 has been completed, adding another 165.1 km (103.2 miles) to what will eventually be a 950 km (593.75 mile) off-road trail.

Again, as this is a multi-day ride, ride reports will be presented in a daily format. This page will remain as the index to the 2-week ride, and be regularly updated until the reports — 5.7 GB of pictures and 1.66 GB of videos to sort, edit, and notate — are complete.

Hi Chris!

Oh, it's done. I'm back. Thanks, though :-D

Love your write up on Laos. I'm not even 1/3 through it yet, but it's fascinating.

Gonna look for Mr Chew sometime today if the weather holds... The only thing worse than the weather here are the uncountable — and unaccountable — politicians.
