Quarry Hils darebin Creek wednesday 28 dec 2016

Decided to hop on the bike on wednesday and just keep riding North so i rode up the darebin Creek till around Mt Cooper then continued to the ring rd  followed this till i hit the Northern Section of the darebin crk trail which continues thru Lalor its mostly Concrete now till you get to some footy ovals where it join henderson Creek  which gets you to sth morang train line i just continued north as i havent been up up this way for a while there is a section that has been left as freeway reserve likely never to used for this

I found my way to quarry Hills which MBTC did back in September  a nice ride to do on much cooler day than when i did it at 35c
there are about 4 look outs its right between epping and Mill park lakes
@ Quarry Hills from the first look out
