Port Augusta motel car park
Only a few words to describe today (30th), 'cold' & 'wet', often with the adjective 'extremely'. Thankfully it was only 469 km today so it wasn't totally unbearable. Even though the weather was the worst we had experienced during the ride so far, we still had occasional joy with views that appeared unexpectedly as we rounded a corner or crested a hill.

Being forewarned by truckies & another biker riding west that there was major water over the road where we were headed we rode very carefully indeed however most of the water was already drained away by the time we reached it.

A jovial destination drink at our car park / laundry party was had knowing all had arrived safely if somewhat cold & wet.

    Cheryl & Colin are a couple who love spending our time together & riding bikes. Now that our kids have 'grown & flown' we are able to spend some time enjoying each others company while achieving something good in the way of fundraising for this very important cause.

    Ride Around Australia October 2010


     In October 2010 we are riding a Honda Varadero around Australia to raise money for the Steven Walter Foundation's Answers for Kids Cancer Program. We will document the the journey with a daily diary, where possible, of the trip.
