The attempt will start from Coogee early hours of Monday 14th October.

It seems all the ducks are lining up with a good shakedown ride to Border Village last weekend which tested the fuel strategy.

A Scarborough Beach rest period is planned to end Wednesday 16th @00.40am WA time.

Ron, if the planets align...I may be able to head "east" and see you off out of Perth.
My start time is 2am on the East Coast. This will mean I need a start docket at Scarborough before 4am AEDT (or 1am WA time.)
Thank you, you're most welcome to join in the fun. I feel so privileged to have 2 IBR rider escorting me some of the way. Martin out of Coogee, and Jeff for 10 legs of the ride. No doubt there will be others along the way.

Thanks for the support from the IBA Australia members.

VFR serviced, Wednesday, with new sprockets and chain, and rubber both ends. Ordered new pads in for front as they were getting a bit sad. Spare levers turned up Thursday, and I will carry a spare fuel filter (internal). The bike has 60,000 km now, finally set up, almost ready to go. RooTED will be fitted Tuesday. Probably wander towards the east coast Friday.
