Coalfields to Orchards - Munda Biddi Trail Ticked Off

[Aushiker]

Riding the Munda Biddi Trail from the coalfields of Collie to the orchards of Donnybrook saw my ticking off a section end-to-end of the Trail. My ride of the Trail from Collie to Donnybrook in November 2013 was the final ride in my effort to complete a section end-to-end of the Munda Biddi Trail. I first road the Mundaring to Collie section back in April 2008 when that was all there was of the Trail, and then I attempted to complete the Nannup to Collie section in July 2011 but only made Donnybrook. In July 2013 I headed off again to ride from Albany to Collie but only made Donnybrook! This time I have started in Collie riding to Donnybrook; I am not letting Donnybrook jinx me again!

Now all done. Yeah!

Your persistence paid of, well done!

What is the distance of that route? I've never visited Australia and would be keen to cycle there in the future so interested in finding what's on offer.

It is approximately 1,000 km so around the 600 miles mark. I would suggest that it could easily ridden in just over two weeks.

Enjoyed the read Aushiker but it didn't inspire me to fly 12,000 miles to do it!
I admire your persistence though to get the job done!

In all honesty if I was in your riding shoes I would make the same decision ... it is not that great a ride.
