So just where did this come from?

A rarity this morning, only the second time in 2005 that I've felt the need to wear arm-warmers on a ride. It was the pre-dawn circuit of Hinze Dam in the hinterland (the place where I go for quick hills), and it had really been a beautiful morning. The only possible downside had been my ability to arrive everywhere just after it had rained, meaning that I missed the pleasure of riding in the rain, but still managed to get myself covered in the usual rubbish that accumulates on Queensland "roads" at this time. However, it was right at the end of the ride, getting ready for work, that I chanced a glance out the back door and found this:



This truly has to be one of the most spectacular sights I've ever seen across that canal (and that includes all those sunsets), not one, but two rainbows! Sometimes I wonder how I can live here. I managed to drag myself away from it for the ride to work, but chancing the occasional glance at the notoriously slow traffic lights I encountered, and it was still there! Even when I got to Southport, right at the end, waiting at an intersection for an extended period, a quick glance over my shoulder, and it was still there! It was nice to be followed around by two rainbows throughout the morning. It added some colour to a normally dull and emotion-less commute.

Now where did they say the pot of gold was?
