2019 - Dubbo and Beyond: Day 37

Temp: 6-25 degC

Walk (Greg): 3km

Ride/Walk: 27km

First order of business today was to find a suitable establishment to break our fasts at and we did this at the Bakearoma Bakery & Coffee Lounge. Having re-charged our batteries we were able to continue the ride around Roma to see the sights.

We did St Pauls Church again, Cenotaph, RSL, 3D mural at the Cultural Centre, rode on the Adungadoo Pathway past Shady's Lagoon to The Big Bottle Tree, and onto the Big Rig where we learned about the story of oil in this area, how it was made and how it was taken out of the ground and is still being taken out of the ground. We also learned all about how Santos is helping the region with it's mining. It was then time to feed the worms again.

We did the Roma Art Gallery and Bush Gardens before heading home. The gardens were nothing to write home about however, the art in the gallery was quite good and many photos were taken (sorry).

The Southern Cross Windmill was on the way home. It is the largest commercially operational windmill manufactured by Southern Cross.

After our pre-dinner drinks at the vans, we ate at the clubhouse - rissoles or steak burgers. We also watched the clay pigeon shooting which was very interesting. No pictures unfortunately.
