Good read Nick, Rookie that was one of the things I suggested to Nick. Remembering of course it’s not his bike he wasn’t going to throw parts at it. I have more thoughts and ideas about this but will if I remember later add them as I need to gear up right now and get on the bike. All very interesting, thanks again for putting it together Nick

One beer all day Eags! They haven’t had a hard day yet either, long maybe but all easy (maybe not into Hungerford :whistle: ) but its all pretty easy just long distances between sights.

They were doing the Dig Tree and a few other things today, so that may be the in and out backtracking a bit :whistle: There was only just over 400k on the route planned today anyway, so time for a bit of sightseeing maybe..I actually have been flat stick at work today and only looked on the I Pad every couple of hours to check progress, plenty of OK messages mean all good though
They are booked in at Innamincka Hotel for tonite , lets see if they can make that before dark !!!!
:laugh: :laugh: Yeah lets see eh Eags :whistle:
Thats what Adv riding is all about IMO. If you get the time to explore…… Go for it I say
I planned their last two days short to allow for the dig tree etc ( and to rest them before we hook them up and drag them through SA :whistle: joking :laugh: ) bit over 400 today easy fast running. Tomorrow they only have less than 250.
We will do Walkers Crossing tomorrow, we will leave here very early tomorrow morning to beat the unseasonable heat

Eags you should have known that :laugh: they will also back track out of the dig tree 11kms
Actually looking at the spot I thought they may have been further on than they are today but they will be right? They should camp at he dig tree and get into Innamincka in the morning
you haven’t got to make your destination every night.TB
This morning we went out to big red
Random shots
