Le Tour De Toowoomba


Motivated by the exploits of more famous tour, we too took to the hills. Or at least Toowoomba. We went and stayed with Braden this last weekend. Toowoomba is a tad cooler than Brisbane at this time of the year and Sonja enjoyed the fireplace at Braden's house.

On Sabbath afternoon we played Boules with Mandi and Daniel. Boules was a suitably French activity for our tour! Although it was a bit cool in the wind, we played for over an hour. It was truly delightful although none of us are particularly masters!

The Sunday leg of the tour moved to a more suitable racing format with Braden and Clinton taking to the track. The small indoor track at Toowoomba is a lot of fun and this was not the first visit. On this occasion, there were very few people on the track which made for exciting jostling between Braden and Clinton. The photo shows Clinton clearly in the lead, a position he held for a few seconds at least!
