Line 1:

The '''Riesling Trail''' is a 27 kilometre walking and riding track located in the [[Clare Valley]], [[South Australia]]. It runs between [[Auburn]] and [[Clare]], passing through several towns and villages along the way, including [[Leasingham]], [[Watervale]], [[Penwortham, South Australia|Penwortham]] and [[Sevenhill]]. Originally part of the railway branch line which ran between [[Riverton]] in the south to [[Spalding]] in the north, it was abandoned after the [[1983]] [[Ash Wednesday]] bushfires which burnt through the valley and damaged a lot of the trackwork. It was decided that the old railway lines would be removed and in the late 1990s, this part of the route was converted into its present use as a walking and cycle trail. Many of the original rails were sent to [[Queensland]], where they were layed down as tracks used for transporting sugar trains in the north of that state.

Back again. I'm overjoyed. I had a feeling you would't be able to resist. I can sympathise with your reasons for leaving, I can get a bit addicted myself, I had a break from the WP myself.

BTW whilst you were away, we had another outbreak of 80.255's traditional counties silliness at [[Shipston-on-Stour]], and I made an explanatory note at [[Wikipedia:Naming conventions (places)#Counties of Britain|the counties policy]]. All the other people who voted for the policy OK'd it at [[User talk:G-Man|my talk page]], I hope you approve. I also did some work at [[Metropolitan county]].
