The Tip Talk
« on: September 10, 2018, 08:42:19 AM »
Since Nat Rally we have continued our journey dropping off the van in Mareeba in 31 August and together with Brisbane friends headed further north. Last Tuesday we arrived at the Tip of Cape York and unfurled the OzStoc flag.
Along the way we stopped off at Fruit Bat Falls, Eliot Falls,
These are just a few snaps as I know many are envious but with limited phone reception it proving difficult to keep updated.

Great pix, especially Kennedy River.  Well done!!    :thumbs
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Coloured sands at Elim Beach.
Nob Point near Hopevale.

Archer Point where the view was spectacular and the water a lovely turquoise colour.

A beer at the historic Lions Den Pub.
