Nolie and I joined the ride from Fish Creek (ele. 243’ASL) to Meeniyen (ele 144’ ASL), starting with coffee at Gibsons Cafe. We noted the Annis and George Bills Horse troughs dedicated to horse welfare (more at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bills_horse_troughs). The trailhead featured great toilets and a bike repair station. This repair station had a functional and heavy-duty bike pump which worked very well, but very heavy to operate. Fish Creek, on the main road to Wilsons Prom and GSRT, is a quaint village growing in tourism. Our journey covered rail platforms at Stony Creek and Meeniyen, through bushland filled with maidenhair ferns, blanket leaf, and tree ferns. Noted birds included herons, coots, chestnut teal ducks, Australasian grebe, little pied cormorant, crimson rosella, and spotted pardalote. There was a bird hide at the water recycle ponds near Meeniyen. Drinks at club Toora and dinner at the Royal Standard Hotel. Followed by cheery farewells before finishing our wonderful experience on the GSRT. I will return one day to finish riding the remainder of the trail.
