Trephina Gorge Day Out
On Saturday I got to go on a little jaunt around Trephina Gorge. Here are a few little happy snaps.

New Toys: Bike Bag Dude Frame and Chaff Bags
Two days ago I received a parcel from the east coast with exciting new toys. For a few years I have been trying to work out how to carry more and more water as I wander further from the beaten track. Actually living in the desert, I am more concerned about being precisely on the track, but not having access to water for hundreds of kilometres. Anyway, the parcel contained […]

Central Australia Photos
I spent last week out around Central Australia for work and took a decent number of happy snaps which I thought I might share. I hope you enjoy them, it is pretty good when you get to go places like this for work.

Kangaroo Island Day 5: A Long Day
84.4km 4h 59min 354m Ascent 61km before lunch at 12:30pm Last night I decided on a plan for the remainder of my trip.

So […]
