On Monday morning, nine CANC cyclists gathered without much fanfare in the light drizzle at Central Park in Rockhampton. We received a blessing from Father John Grace and with much trepidation and excitement we road off into the thickening rain. The first two days cycling were not as glorious as we had hoped but it was exciting to be together and finally on the road. We road through almost constant rain down the busy, wet, narrow (but thankfully mostly flat) Bruce Highway from Rockhampton to Mount Larcom.
(I would like to make a special thank you to the Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton and in particular to Steph Lloyd who organised our accommodation in Rocky on Sunday night.)
