Sorted the trailer this morning; nearly that is. Managed to squeeze in Heather's rod diagonally in the trailer.

Heather found her collapsible rod that fitted in better.

Other than that we're just about ready to roll. I plan to tryout some different camera mount locations on the trailer now that I can control the cam via the phone on the dash shelf. Only planned stops are Murray Bridge for fuel (there and back), photo at Kingston S.E. (we have two Kingston in SA) and Cape Jaffa on the return trip.   

Weather forecast for Robe seems ok for the weekend but we might get a shower or two of rain.

Hi guys,  sorry but I will be out for this one.  Cracked a tooth in half and i will be spending more time in the dentist's chair than I will be on the bike.  Have a good ride and stay safe.

We made home just on an hour ago (6:25) - will do a write up later (day or two) after we dry out and repack the tent from the little bit of rain we had overnight.

Sort of put the wrong fuel in the bike. Put in PULP (premium) instead of ULP. Took a few minutes to figure why the ULP was $1.13 a litre on the sign board and the pump said $1.25. Trust BP to have yellow for premium and not yellow like Shell does. Not a big issue.
