Home to Eden day one
5 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
And we are off, an early start saw us arrive the CFA District 8 HQ in Dandenong at 7:45, a quick meetup with Tony and Mark and a few photos. Pakenham Bunnings was the next port of call with most of the team meeting there to kick off, swap out of cars for the trailer and again some more photos. Peter, Andrew and John have joined Craig and I. Last hugs before we set off to collect the last member Ian in Warragul. A quick splash and dash of fuel. Mafra is our lunch spot, trying to miss roadworks on the Princess before Sale! With lunch done and time rushing by we push on to our next fuel stop in Cann River! A welcome stop to stretch and rest while waiting for the car to catch up. It’s raining 😔 just enough to be annoying, once in Eden the first nights camp is everything I expected (needs a little work) but we will all learn! Oh someone bumped there head 🥺 Bed time - till tomorrowBaca selengkapnya

Day 2 Eden to wollongong
6 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
The day started with a chill and Pete’s bike not liking the cold - suspension crapped itself again - beautiful sunshine with a clear sky chill, perfect for riding. Eden was a splash and dash of fuel before watching Pete bounce down the road. Ulladulla is the goal and a meet up with Mick James from Australia 18. Pete is off to BMW and hopefully a cure. Maccas is the meeting point and coffee is a must. Off again and trying to chase down Pete, got him just in time to pull over for fuel in Bomaderry! With the tanks full it’s the last push for Wollongong. Camp is much better tonight and quicker! Pete has set up for a movie and I’m doing this - I will leave it here as I’ve been tempted to watch Ford v FerrariBaca selengkapnya

8 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Woke to an awesome morning! Some much needed Sunshine. Ian is an hour up the road visiting family and Peter got in about 8pm. A slow start and some effort to dry out wet gear. Crowds point light house and we are off. Drive through Nambucca Heads and Urunga (our lunch stop) and off to chase the car down, Andrew said it’s getting warm with the load so he is driving on at his own speed.
Rain hit us at Tweed Heads and we are all doing cabins for the night! I headed out for dinner with Issy and Georgia, it was awesome to see them and hear how well they are doingBaca selengkapnya

9 September 2022, Australia ⋅ 🌧 16 °C
Wet and miserable start to the day. Woke to the news that Queen Elisabeth 2 had passed away 😔 there is big rains coming, I have a lunch date with Steph, a break in the weather has John and I on the road. Craig is with Andrew in the car ahead so as it is easier on them (hopefully they see some sights and not just windscreen wipers😔) Ian is meeting us at the caravan park and Peter is headed to BMW to service his bike.

Late in, no pic of me with Steph 🥺 throttle still no good - I’m doing that in the morning, think I know the problem but if I can fix it it will have to wait until Cairns or Darwin where I can get a new throttle switch.Baca selengkapnya

10 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Well that went pair shaped really quick. After the difficulties of yesterday the three of us (Ian, John and I) are waiting on the car to collect the trailer! It arrived late last night and this morning it’s a no show! A few phone calls to the network and we found it a home till we can come get it. Ian is now doing the Daintree, Darwin and going down the middle. Craig and Andrew have family around Innisfail and I have no idea what Peter is doing! So it’s John and I left to complete the lap. After getting everything arranged today we left the park at 11am only to head to the trailer to get gear out for Peter😵‍💫😔 anyway, we finally got to Clairview after dark and set up camp. Let’s see what tomorrow brings 🤷🇦🇺🏍🏍 no photos as we had a haul arse day and no time to sight see 🥺Baca selengkapnya

Well, that was a better day! Apart from John leaving his credit card at our last stop🥺 which added an extra 240klm to the day lmao we rang the park an where able to upgrade to a cabin for an extra $50🧐😎 and a very nice cabin it is ☺️
The ride was full on with heat, roadworks! Bike was flawless and John was on point. Filled up in Marlborough (for the second time in 2 days lmao) and turned north with John in the lead. A catch-up with one of his mates is on the cards for Cannonvale (on the Whitsundays) I have an interest in the turn off as well, a little history. That turned into almost 800k’s today so no time for pictures really - Apart from this mornings sunrise WOWBaca selengkapnya

12 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Today is an easy ride and an opportunity to rebalance/rejig this ride! What can I say - 1 week in and we’ve made it to Cairns 1/4 done. Rain for the first three days, personality clashes and a split but we are continuing. No support car and trailer and down to 2 bikes 😔 Got to take in some beautiful sights. Cardwell was a stand out and I will return, castle hill look out was closed 🥺 Suncity Harley don’t carry poker chips. Found a memorial to the battle of the coral sea. Cardwell is awesome and well worth the stop. Tomorrow is our first rest dayBaca selengkapnya

Long day on the bike, over 700k’s out of cairns we headed up through the hills (Gillies Range road) WOW, forget the tail of the dragon! and the views where to die for! Over the top onto the Atherton table lands and the temperature is rising. Today peaked at 39°Celsius. Fuel stop at Georgetown (the halfway mark) and lunch. Then the last push to our abode for the night in Normanton. I’ve never been happier to see a pool than tonight lmao. It was huge and cool. Then a few drinks with John to celebrate 71 years… awesome day and more photos to add once downloaded from camerasBaca selengkapnya

What an awesome day! What can I say, Coffee (This little place has 2 Italian Baristas) and some local sights - Normanton. Biggest croc ever shot…. Local train station etc. Next stop was the Burke and Wills roadhouse for fuel. Sneaky The Acorn Bar & Restaurant photo. Stopped at the Burke and Wills tree Memorial (but someone stole the plaque 😔) Also did Mary Kathleen historical sight in Cloncurry and the ghost town before reaching Mount Isa for a cold beer and I nice roomBaca selengkapnya

Mount Isa to Tennant Creek, lots to see! 🥺 670k’s of the same lol, you turn onto the Barkley Hwy and the GPS says “turn left in 634k’s” stopped for fuel at Camooweal and had coffee! Then across the border into the NT (Stubbie holder out for The Acorn Bar & Restaurant) and a long straight road to the Barkly homestead for another fill. Leaving early worked well with us in the pool at Tennant creek by 15:30. But you can’t buy grog until 4pm and then there are restriction. Quiet dinner with a few ciders and off to Mataranka hot spring tomorrowBaca selengkapnya

Tennant Creek is like the Wild West!! Show your ID to get grog! Restrictions on what you can get and combination! The local youths roaming the streets all night making it hard to sleep. There is a family of Aboriginals in the next cabin and we’ve had to tell them to get off the bikes twice! The pool is cold so winner there. Head out in the morning and first stop is fuel at $1.94 a litre! Not to bad. John has us stopping for some candid photos and then a beer at Daly Waters, lunch is in the hanger at the Daly Waters airfield. Next stop Larrimah and the Pink Panther Hotel before reaching the Mataranka Homestead and thermal pools - wish I had room for more photos (I will sneak them in tomorrows) 😂
😃 big smile for you Connie 😂😂Baca selengkapnya

Day 14 Mataranka to Darwin
18 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 33 °C
Today is a shorter day (only 400ish K’s) so an easy start and a soak in the pools before hitting the road. The Peacock was fascinated with the bike (I really don’t know how he could see himself through all the dirt) and wouldn’t leave it alone. Fuel at Mataranka, Katherine is a COFFEE stop and met Brad then headed to Pine Creek, camp ground is awesome, toilets are incredible, lunch is gluten free pizza and a few coldies - Brad caught us and joined us for lunch. We all headed off to Adelaide River together to the war Cematery. Then the pub for another coldie. Brad rode along with us to Darwin. Tonight is rehydrate and washing before bike services and resting tomorrowBaca selengkapnya

No pictures today. A quiet start with both bikes in for service! 8am at Hidden Valley Harley, coffee and breakfast a few doors down and all is quiet. Post service we caught up with some of John’s mates and I had a lemon lime & bitters! It’s hot. Shopping done for an early start tomorrow and all our washing is caught up on. Some goodies in the swag from Harley (couldn’t resist). We will be on the road to timber creek at 6:30am to try and beat the 40° heat 😔 wish us luck.
As a side note! Thank you Hidden Valley Harley, if you where closer to home you’d get my bike for every service! Harley Heaven could learn a thing or two!!!Baca selengkapnya

WOW, what a day. Started early to beat the heat and well on the road by 7am, fuelled and on the road. The first leg is a retrace of Sunday as we head out of Darwin for Katherine. Riding past Adelaide River and Pine creek (Lazy Lizard) to get a refill of fuel and Coffee. Then back on track to Timber Creek.
The road through Jadbarra/Gregory National park and over the Victoria river was amazing. Awesome roads and sights to see, but the jewel in this little crown was Timber Creek. Awaiting us was an icy pool, cool drinks and a crocodile feeding show. Followed by a Kite feeding show! I felt at home, just different birds lol.Baca selengkapnya

What can I say about Day 21? Well after a great night at Bellie’s (cracked open a bottle of Jack 😉) We started off with Breakfast in Port Hedland after a little ride around town, Silver star is a rail car cafe and it’s the best bacon I’ve had since I left home - yummy, the coffee was awesome as well! Karratha was dirty and boring however Dampier was amazing! Saw a memorial to Red Dog, sat and had lunch on the waters edge. A quick stop at the Fortescue river and a quick picture of the bridge before reaching our camp site for the night at Nanutarra roadhouse! A great dinner (more perfect bacon) on steak sandwich - todays little diversions added 75k’s to the planned ride but it was well worth it 😎Baca selengkapnya

Day 22 Nanutarra to Hamelin Pools
26 September 2022, Australia ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Day 22 today rode from Nanutarra to Hamelin Pools, it was a much cooler day (thank goodness) however the view didn’t change! Google took us around Carnarvon and lunch was a roadside stop . Tomorrow is a big push to Perth just under 700k’s so early start and long day but a rest day to follow (by pushing we also get to steal a day somewhere else) no pics as nothing worth stopping to takeBaca selengkapnya
