SCDR FR
« on: September 19, 2025, 03:00:39 PM »
The Southern Cross Distance Riders (https://scdr.au/) are one of two groups keeping Australian Far Riding alive.
Tomorrow the destination is Deniliquin.  I'm leaving Brisbane at 5:00 this arvo.  My SPOT will be live then:

The arrival window is 11:30am to 12:00.
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

Home again. If you looked at the SPOT track you'll see that I went to Deniliquin and checked-in for the SCDR RTE, then turned around and rode back to Naranderra for the night which made the trip into and Ironbutt 1600K.  This morning I left at 8:00 and got home at 9:45pm for what SCDR call a SC12D, that is 1200+km in less than 24 hours documented.  Now for bed!
