Last Chance Training
A relatively easy walk this week after the slog of previous sessions doing only the first two legs from Brooklyn via Cowan to Berowra. We started nice and early meeting up at the favourite Top of the Ridge bakery for a cheese and bacon pie and an apple and cinnamon slice before jumping on a train to Brooklyn with a guest walker, Nico, visiting from France and keen to see a side of Sydney that is probably unknown to many people who actually live here.
We had a little rude awakening in the new start route which takes you up a very steep paved trail only a minutes walk from the Parsley Bay car park that had us warmed up and panting in no time...
A link to trail directions and map for the first leg can be found here and for the second leg here.
Brekky, Psuedo springtime floral delights and Berowra Waters (yet again, but this time it’s a panorama with fires off in the distance!)
