Went back out to the Honda dealer who had a quick look at the ‘Bird and bodged a few loose things up for me, couldn’t source a new back tyre so will have to wait until I hit Alice Springs. Went out to Howard Springs (early water supply for Darwin) for a look, springs seem […]
Took ages to pack up this morning. It was the first time that I had to get EVERYTHING on the ‘Bird, even my little suppository stool 🙂 and of course it was hot. Unbelievably, I ran into the Kiwis at Pine Creek (who decided that we were miscreants) who were on their way back to […]
