Wow, we have just finished the Nullarbor….what a ride!
I’m 10 days ahead of schedule and with two speaking gigs in Adelaide I have to slow down. As such, I rode down the Eyre peninsula to Streaky Bay, a very beautiful part of SA. We look out our tent and the ocean, dolphins and birds are right there…amazing stuff!
A huge thank you to Shelley Beach Caravan Park in Ceduna for reducing our cabin fee to just 40 a night…..wonderful to be in a cabin and sit out the cold wind and rain for two days and nights!
This is from near our tent in Streaky Bay.
Sunrise the next morning from near our tent.
The incredibly rugged coastline near Eliston….
These heads are part of a series of carvings on the coastline near Eliston on the west coast of the Eyre Peninsula…..amazing to see them coming around a corner!
The extraordinary coastline just south of Streaky Bay….the mauve colours of the rocks are striking…
These sand dunes go on for kilometres….they are very similar to snow covered ranges…..being a snowboarder it made me feel like racing downhill on my board with Barbie in hot pursuit!
Murphys Haystacks…a very unusual rock outcrop…think they are granite…whatever they are it’s an odd sight in the middle of a paddock of sheep…
This is the cast of a white pointer caught off the coast nearby…it’s a world record line catch….1520 kg, 5 metres long caught on 24kg line…can you believe that? The pectoral fins were 1m long!
I’ve just clocked up 11 000 km and raised almost $20 000 for the foundation. Incredibly, a complete stranger donated $1 000! Would one day like to meet Paul Warburton….good on ya mate!
Planning to ride to Kimba on the Eyre Hwy tomoz, 176 km from Poochera where I rode to yesterday.
God bless you and thanks so much to everyone who has donated…$20 000 is a wonderful amount to reach on our ride……
Cya 🙂
