Clare and the Riesling Trail.

One of our favourite places..in South Australia it is the area that I would like to move to...who knows in the future!!!!!! I'll agree with that.(SD)"The Riesling Trail" was something that I had wanted to do every time we came here. It is the old rail line from Auburn through Clare & beyond.

So Dull & Early, off I went on the bike.

I had to have a reason for them other than a stone guard!!

Looking up to Tim Adams' winery you can see why it's the Riesling Trail.
Magnificent River Gums abound.
History as well. They were made of sturdy stuff in those days....
A lovely spot to start the village of Penwortham.....
Somewhere before Watervale @ the 12 km. mark it went from just foggy to foggy & rain!!! So I listened to my crying legs & turned around. Now the problem with this was it's just as far back...
The rain eased up as I went past the church @ Penwortham so a quick snap & off I went

I must be a glutton for punishment 'cos the next day I rode 20 kms. north of Clare to the end of the track...
