I was awake early again after a disturbing nights sleep in Wycliffe Wells (must’ve been something to do with the UFO stuff…) and then the alarm went off…… 🙁 Up and go! I gotta tell you, the mornings up here are unbelievable and today was very fresh and I met with another amazing sunrise. Sorry …

A tiring day yesterday, made for a night where sleep didn’t take long to come along. In the morning though, I expected to be the only FarRider left at Daly Waters. What a pleasant surprise to see that Klaus, Michael & Lynne had all slept in J I was staying in the room called “Faith …

The plan is we all decided last night to leave at 5:00am and ride out together with all lights blazing. I’d already teed up (in the week prior to) to ride out with Fatman (Michael) & Lynne the Pillion so I wasn’t riding in the dark hours on my own but as it turned out …

I’m going to work today backwards so I don’t forget things…… After a long days ride I arrived in Lightning Ridge at around 4:30pm – totally exhausted, it was a hard days ride. The last 60 kays from Walgett to Lightning Ridge were the scariest kays I think I have ever done. I almost thought …

YAY, another FarRide to yet another town that I haven’t been too!! Lake Cargellico. Plan done well in advance and taking Angel for the run since I haven’t had her out for a decent run in way too long and I need to see how I handle her since she will be going to Darwin …
