Certainly made you work off the effort of pedalling home.
At least now they have put all these unused Rail Lines to good use, & its a boost for local tourism, we have heaps of riders every day stopping here at the local bakery for a feed, they have even put in a Bike Repair Station with drinking fountain. (1st Pic I posted with the Tallangatta sign)
