Now, that I’d fathomed (I think!) I could arrive in Spain, next was the planning on getting to the UK. That was straightforward 🚵♂️ I’d cycle. When I came out, for the first time I’d travelled without a tent 🎪 On this trip I had no reason to bring it along as my plan…
After my previous outing to the Munda Biddi Trail 🚵 (North to South 2017) I had no expectations or plans to undertake the whole thing again! Why would I? But while back in wet’n’windy Blighty for 10 months and with no other thoughts crossing my mind to cycle anywhere else, in time, it became…
Today‘s final section is Wungong hut to Carinyah hut. Straight line north. I recall last year (north to south) the terrain was fairly arduous, but then it was only the second day of the trail and the weather remained a scorcher. ☀️ This time though, I’m trail fit 💪 and the weather is mild in comparison. Still significantly warm but not the late thirties. The terrain though,…

Sticking to the trail this time! 😀 The upcoming, supposed, camping opportunity would be Lake Brockman 🚤 As this is a large commercial camping site … that‘s…
After a restless night at Donnybrook Transit Park (continual heavy traffic through town) 😪 I pack up and head briefly onto the South Western Highway. Unfortunately, for Donnybrook there’s no bypass 🛣️ So the South Western Highway is that, a main highway for heavy haulage right through the centre of town. It doesn’t stop! As with most towns I’ve cycled through in Aus,…
