A real privilege of mine to spend an evening 'off the clock' over a couple of cold beers with the man himself, Gus out here in Scarborough, WA last night!!

The hardcopy Brisbane-Perth-Brisbane cert from February, 2019 has finally shown up today in the post.

My HUGE thanks to everyone who helped me pull this one off...who include:

Ian McPhee (Tabledrain)
TJ Evans
Clint Lovell
Martin Little
Karl Pirchmoser (Skidoo)
Lynne & Michael Morris (LTP & Fatman)....they both drowned their phones (and very nearly themselves) just to meet me in Cobar!!
Gus Cuthbertson
Lindsay Topperwein
Ron Perry
Daisy and Reg Conley
Bazz (Kwaka)

Donna (from the IBA over here in the states, who customized the artwork on this cert a bit to show the real route taken).

Heaps of truckies and campervans across the Nullarbor plain who tossed out a friendly wave...

Last but not least, Dave Jones, who did the first Brisbane - Perth 50CC (50 hours) in 2006 from Fishermans Island, QLD that encouraged me to even attempt this double crossing.

Nice one Dan

Congratulations again on the fantastic ride. Having completed 100CCC rides on two continents puts you in a very small group.

 

[Dan Simmonds]

Yes thanks OX. Means a lot coming from you. Mate we will have to meet up next summer over in OZ.

What a ripper of a certificate Dan, a well earned one for your wall.

It was a pleasure to meet you and thanks again for bringing the rain to Cobar.

 

[Lynne "the Pillion"]

Congratulations on completing this ride it is/was one hell of a ride and you certainly deserve the certificate to prove that you completed it. (or should that be to prove that you are insane?)
Drowned rats? - The things we do do meet people eh?
Hope to catch up with you again when you are back in Oz in 2020

It's not everyone who has a certificate certifying their insanity and still gets to hold a passport to travel internationally
Most tourists just take photos. Awesome memory of a fantastic ride Dan!

 

[Dan Simmonds]

Haha! That's appreciated, Tele. I work overtime to *not* appear as a tourist Reckon it's time to hang up the helmet when that happens.

Cheers, Dan
