Be interested to know who Marcel is? I know from the IBA Forum he is riding with Frans who is on a CTX1300...
One day you will wake up and there won't be anymore time to do the things you've always wanted so do them NOW!!!
Remember there are 7 days in a week and Someday isn't one of them!

Kev here is one you may have missed. Brian from Brisbane and a mate Marcel are doing a couple of Trans Australia Iron Butts.

Photobucket is sleepy at the moment, cannot upload pics.
Suffice to say that Brian is now more than halfway between Marla and Coober Pedy

Reached Coober Pedy around 40 minutes ago, refuelled, and left the servo just before 4am.
Appear to be taking a break, having been on the go for 24 hours

Still cannot upload any images to Photobucket. Been unresponsive for more than 4 hours. I think they musta broke a rubber band.

Confirmed on FB, having a kip at Coober Pedy.

"my digs for a few hours. Frans stayed at Marla. Due to wind and a tank issue I will just have to be happy with this 2000klm in 24 hours....and the ride continues. Will meet Frans in the morning at Glendambo."
