First night staying Warren Motor Inn short. Only a short walk down to Services Club for dinner. We did 760 km not your FarRide but a enjoyable day
One of my ride mates had an argument with a roo 50km north of Gilgandra today
Lucky he didn't come off but has a very sore foot and pannier  broken where it attaches to bike a Triumph Tiger
We got it strapped on with ocky straps
Roo didn't survive the mishap
Broken Hill tomorrow night

I've just had a phone conversation with Wild Rose.  Today he had a slow speed "off" at Angaston SA, and unfortunately he's broken his shoulder.   He's currently in hospital and is being assessed, and certainly won't be riding for some time.   I'll be keeping in touch, and will assist with transporting Leo as required, and storage of his bike, which is currently in the care of motel where's he's staying.

Leo had organized a visit to a local museum for Monday, but understandably that is now off.    I've put a notification under "Health and Well Being"

I noticed you said you were having " a day off the bike" but don't you think you have taken it a little too literally !!! :-[
