Went to Williamstown

Should have gone to Port Melbourne

The weather in Melbourne has gone from 40 degrees and sunny to 25 degrees, grey, wet and miserable overnight. This is normal. After work (and shopping) I took my bike over to Williamstown. There was a strong headwind all the way. Since the route is semicircular around the bay, this is impossible. There were some boats racing downwind towards the mouth of the Yarra.

Spinnakers off Williamstown On to the leeward mark

If I'd followed the other bank of the river and gone to Port Melbourne, I'd have had a better view, and been closer to home when the rain started.

On the plus side, nobody passed me today and the new GPS is working fine. On the down side, 100% cloud cover, so no chance of comet-spotting. Poot.
