Day 3 - A mix

Started off latish from Emerald Beach and headed upto Grafton onto Casino, Lismore and upto Nimbin. The road from Lismore to Nimbin was classic, twisty road following a beautiful valley upto Nimbin. Strolled around Nimbin for a while and then took off to the Channon. From there we thought we had enough time to go upto Protestors Fall, but misjudged the timing with 15km of dirt each way, by the time we got back to the Channon it was getting dark, and we rode the last 30 odd k to Mullum in the dark, along some roads which would have been beautiful in the light.
Geoff also picked up a rivet in his back tyre and spent the last ?? k riding on a flat, which with the darkness and the road, made for a scary trip to Cliff and Emma's 
It was lovely to get there and great to spend some time with them all, in what is probably my second home in Australia :-)
