    We had a huge night on the cans at the Birdsville pub last night and woke up very seedy !!!

    We took off Fishs back wheel for DJ.
    I took DJ on the back of my Tenere 46km back down the Birdsville track to recover the project DR. We we fitted the wheel with Lotsa , TB and Krusty and headed for Birdsville. 10km short of town DJ got a flat in Fishs back wheel.
    Krusty and I went back to town and got Boulders back wheel and headed back to the DR.
    Fishs E09 side wall was split too.
    Once back at the pub we stripped all the wheel got new tyres and did some bike maintainance.

    After a Camel pie and a Kip we decided to get back on the cans then hit Big Red tomorrow :woohoo:

    It’s been a great adventure so far and the best is yet to come !!!!

    Solo driving through outback NSW leaves a bloke looking for things to do , I tried playing air banjo, talking myself out of stopping at all the hotels en route and taking some video.
    Corners are a highlight out here !!!!
