Yesterday Riesling Trail friends gathered at the Showgrounds to ‘unveil’ the newest sculpture on the Riesling Trail by Paul Leditschke.

CEO of the Clare & Gilbert Valleys Council Dr Helen Macdonald and Mayor Wayne Thomas were present.

Also thank you to our Chairman Allan Mayfield, Treasurer Peter Wood and Sue Wurst for their organisation.

Riesling Trail Management Committee Chairman Allan Mayfield, Simon Millcock and his mother Ethel Mill and Peter Wood  planting a tree in memory of long-time Riesling Trail leader Graham Mill.

Graham Mill was a long time supporter and former chairman of The Riesling Trail Management Committee . A red stringybark tree commemorating Graham’s significant contribution was planted near Sevenhill station by his family. The event was attended by present committee chairman Allan Mayfield and life time member Peter Wood as well as  Ethel Mill and family Simon and Allison Millcock. The tree (Eucalyptus macnorhyncha) was grown by Ian Roberts of Blyth from seed collected from the Spring Gully Conservation Park.

To allow everyone to enjoy our Trail, please take care and follow these guidelines:

1. keep to the left where appropriate
2. alert other users when approaching by call out or sounding your bell
3. keep dogs under control
4. watch for surface damage caused by adverse weather
5. take all rubbish with you
6. motor bikes, unauthorised vehicles and horses are not permitted.

Wildlife: The Riesling Trail is part of a natural environment. For your safety, treat all wildlife with caution and only observe from a distance.

Enjoy.

The new ‘Cyclist Sculpture’ by Paul Leditschke is now firmly installed (using 4 bags of concrete) next to the Riesling Trail (north of Sevenhill) for those passing by to admire.

Great publicity for, not only the Riesling Trail but also some of our Business Partners and Business Friends.
