There was one intercept that he didn't want. But I'll let Phil tell you about that.

Well done Phil.

Phil, thanks for not "flying under the radar" but allowing us to send some, "much needed sometimes" energy. It has been a privilege sharing your journey.

Hi All

Please accept my apologies for not having responded to your posts over the past week.

I finally arrived home last night after a recovery day in Sydney and taking the long, slow road south.

This 100ccc was the toughest ride for me to get over the finish line, mostly due to limited sleep leading into the ride. A roo strike 180 kms east of Ceduna, SA (in the pre-dawn darkness on Friday morning) was a little off putting but luckily despite damage to the front of the bike, I managed to get home.

I really enjoyed the ride across Australia, especially those open spaces from Port Augusta, SA to Norseman, WA.

I ended up doing 9,905 kms from home back to home of which 7,865 bike kms were on the clock, plus 20 or more kms according to Mr Google.

I will see if I can add some better responses over the next few days.

Cheers

Congratulations on a well planed and executed ride. I can relate to lack of sleep leading up to a 100CCC due to anticipation; but had the best sleep of my life when I completed.

Well done on the ride Philmor it was fun watching your Spot. Sorry to hear of the Roo hit and the damage it caused.

Lynne the Pillion and I had fun intercepting you at Gumley Gumley on Friday night, always good to see you smiling..

What's next?

 

[Scott Parish]

What's next?

That is the question which seems to drive us leading to sleepless nights in front of a computer reviewing maps!

Well done great effort to pull off. !!
