Ballarat Cycling - White Swan
In this video you will see what cycling is like around White Swan Reservoir.
White Swan Reservoir is located just out of Ballarat, and is around a 10 minute ride from the city centre. Once you turn on to White Swan road it is very tranquil as there is very little traffic.
White Swan road has a major hill in it that makes it such an iconic place to ride. It certainly isn't one of the steepest climbs, with an average gradient of about 5% depending on which way you approach the climb. But what makes this climb truly iconic is the wildlife and the bush that surrounds you on the climb. All the wildlife provides a very peaceful and relaxing place, but is also a great distraction from the climb its self. The Bush is a great source of shade and great wind barrier, but most of all it makes for a very scenic ride.
This climb is for all cycling abilities from the beginner to the professional cyclist.

Lal Lal Falls
17/09/16..Ballarat has seen a soggy start to the Spring and the pattern is set to continue throughout the week.
Seventy five percent of the month’s average rainfall has fallen so far with 53.6mm including almost half of this on one day last week.
The beneficiaries so far have been the storages with Lal Lal Reservoir climbing above 72 percent and White Swan, Ballarat’s main direct water feeder at over 90 percent full.
Some of the local natural attractions have also seen the benefit of the rain including Lal La Falls.

Bendigo
Bendigo is a city in Victoria, Australia, located very close to the geographical centre of the state and approximately 150 kilometres north west of the state capital, Melbourne. Bendigo has an urban population of 82,794 making it the fourth largest inland city in Australia and fourth most populous city in the state. It is the administrative centre for the City of Greater Bendigo which encompasses both the urban area and outlying towns spanning an area of approximately 3,000 square kilometres and over 111,000 people.
The discovery of gold in the soils of Bendigo during the 1850s made it one of the most significant Victorian era boomtowns in Australia. News of the finds intensified the Victorian gold rush bringing an influx of migrants to the city from around the world within a year and transforming it from a sheep station to a major settlement in the newly proclaimed Colony of Victoria. Once the alluvial gold had been mined out, mining companies were formed to exploit the rich underground quartz reef gold. Since 1851 about 25 million ounces of gold have been extracted from Bendigo's goldmines, making it the highest producing goldfield in Australia in the 19th century and the largest gold mining economy in eastern Australia. It is also notable for its Victorian architectural heritage. The city took its name from the Bendigo Creek and its residents from the earliest days of the goldrush have been called Bendigonians.
