Gavo is on the move, heading for streaky bay by the looks of it.

He's not much into shortcuts, I notice!

Probably due to his having ridden to Toowoomba twice on the way over.

Gavo's heading west big-time.
Looks like he's caught a dose of "Get-home-itis" after being a tourist for the day.

Looks like Gavo has stopped for the night, as he seems to be stopped in a parking bay.

His SPOT note says "goodnight Brock" so he's hoping you're watching.

He's back in the home State.  Stopped to pick up a few fruit flies, apparently.
Big push for home?

Gavo is still on the move, heading for Cocklebiddy, I think he may prop there for the night, but I could be wrong. Or he could continue to Caiguna may be.

Gavo is at Cocklebiddy, now to see if he stays there or goes to Caiguna. Its only 40Ks away.

What ever he does, its only 11 or 12 hours to home depending on length of stay at fuel/rest stops.

So the sweep starts at 1800Hs tomorrow.

There's rain moving towards him by the looks of it.  The cover might come in handy soon.

His link said the rain arrived at 3:30am.  He would have been glad he was under cover.
The rain won't have improved the Coolgardie roadworks for him.

It's showing him in Norseman now.
The Spots are 10 minutes apart, so it's all good.

Gavo has stopped for the night at Southern Cross, probly weather influenced.

Looking at satellite view, he has parked behind the servo.

Gavo is still at Southern Cross, but its only a three hour ride home now, so he can afford a latish start and a good breakfast.

Gavo has arrived Home.

After a good nap he will probably pop in for a visit.
