Wangaratta, Rutherglen, Bikeworx, Yackandandah, Beechworth Motorcycle ride
This weekend we left Wangaratta bound for Parkers Pies situated in Rutherglen in the heart of Victoria's oldest wine region, before we dropped into the nearby Jones Winery for a tasting session. Then we headed north to see Colin at Bikeworx in Lavington before heading to Bottom Pub at Yackandandah where our old FXR clocked over 100,000 kilometres and finally on to Beechworth to take some photos of Rod's Nightrain in front of the old Beechworth Goal. Overall this ride was 228km and a great way to spend an afternoon.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
