Sunday- Inglewood to Milmerra

Was about to head off to milmerra when i was stopped by one of the Caravan residents. He was a lovely old guy, we had a chat about my trip & he shared some stories of his past, I was about to go when he said ‘I would like to give you some money!’ I [...]

So Im here!

Hey everyone, sorry for the delay. I will update the last days of my trip as soon as I can but in the meantime I thought I should let you know that I arrived yesterday at my mums place. My cycling ended just before Millmerran where my cousin picked me up, taking me back to [...]

Saturday – Texas to Inglewood

Some underlating hills to Inglewood but nothing drastic. Had Tony Robbins playing most of the time, I am enjoying learning new ways to improve my relationships during most of the ride. About 10kms out of Inglewood I could see something moving on the side of the road up ahead, at first I thought it was [...]

Friday – Yetman to Texas

Said the ‘goodbyes’ to my surrogate family and headed off to Texas after a leisurely sleep in till about 11am. The start was a little hilly coming out of Yetman for about 15kms then petered off to a pretty flat ride. There was caterpillars all over the road, so most of the ride I was [...]

Thursday – Spent a Day in Yetman

The lady at the Post Office in Yetman hooked me up with a lovely family to stay with. I was so fortunate (like I always seem to be!). A family of 6 just out of Yetman. They own 10,000 acres and are nestled right on a river. I basically had my own sleeping quarters, Sam [...]

Wednesday- Warialda to Yetman

Stayed in a Caravan park in Warialda, paid $15 for a peice of grass….but as the council lady was leaving she snuck over and gave me a key to a unit & said ‘I didn’t give you this’! Wow so lovely, I was nice and warm in there. I left her a recycled thankyou card. [...]

Tuesday – Bingara to Warialda

Had a great morning helping Jo on the farm. We did some milking (although I don’t agree with the taking or the consumption of the cows milk) and moved the electric fence. Sounds as though everyone in the family and a couple of neighbours have had a little bzzz from the fence so far! I [...]

A Day in Bingara…Day37??

Decided to stay in Bingara for 2nights, the family I am staying with are so amazing. They are beautiful & generous people. There are 10 of us in the house at the moment! But it all works so well. Jo’s son Brendan and I have been having some amazing deep discussions, I really love a [...]

Barraba to Bingara -Sunday

Woke up at about 730 (seems to be the time I naturally wake these days).  Headed for the local IGA for some fruit.  The lovely owner John donated my fruit to me after he heard what I was doing, he was impressed with my bike setup as well as a lot of men seem to [...]

Manila to Barraba – Saturday

Had a reasonably challenging ride to Barraba as I had a pretty intense head wind.  It was only about a 45km ride but the chillout wind makes it feel like a lot more! I pulled up at the local caravan park & straight away got chatting with the owner Bob.  He is a lovely man [...]
