Easy ride with Ewan into Stromlo on a beautiful afternoon. First time on single track for both of us for a while so aimed for a lap of Brittle Gums and Holdens Creek. We rolled around pretty easily - Ewan doing a good job, even on the uphills. We both got a fright crossing Holdens Creek. It was a bit steeper and more technical than I expected and I didn't think Ewan would be up for it so I yelled out to him to stop. He didn't hear me and kept coming, tried to stop when he saw it, realised he couldn't stop, and then rode it pretty nicely even though he was sitting down the whole way. Glad he didn't come off, it wouldn't have been pretty on the pavé-like rock garden. Should get him protective gear - gloves at least.
