Anyone done this ride? Is it all paved or something perhaps?
98kms is a bit on the short side for a couple of days holiday but I could
stretch it out (with lots of eating and drinking) I reckon. ;-)

It's the Ovens valley rail trail. Nice ride - rode it a few years back
on an MTB, but it's fine on a roady. Light gravel surface on hardpack
mostly, nothing you need tread for anyway. Lots of roadies ride it all
the time.

The pic looks like the view north from the top of the Tawonga Gap, although
I wouldnt swear to it. Great riding from Albury to Bright via Yackandandah
and Mt Beauty and the Tawonga Gap, and no rail trails in sight. Stick to the
road up to Beechworth too as the rail trail is a killer constant incline for
15 km or so, no rest anywhere and nothing but bloody gum trees to look at!
The Old Convent in 'Worth has a flat to rent which is good for bike groups.
