Theaussiechallenge Post # 46 Willare Bridge Road House

Day 55 87 days to go. Distance today 149km total 4139km. It’s 6.15pm Friday 31/8/12 Willare Bridge Roadhouse. It’s been a jet star of a day peddling with an awesome tail wind and Mother Nature taking the edge off the distance after yesterday. Thank you x. I’m expecting tomorrow to be a bit more head windy as we say hi to the coastal breezes to Broome. Both Rube and I are a little excited as it’s the full moon tomorrow night and the 1st night of the Stairway to Heaven effect. Apparently Roebuck Bay is a pretty good spot to see the best effect of the moon rising across the 12 m low tidal flats. The photos look amazing so I can’t wait 6.30pm apparently is the time but we’ll be there long before. I’m not sure how tomorrow will look for accommodation but one step at a time. First the 165km safe and sound and we’ll take it from there. Actually first it’s an early night so I can set the alarm for silly o’clock. This is our birthday pressie to us, Rube and I, and it’s a birthday treat well earnt yayayayayaya. Today was very cool having soooo many folk stop and give us water, treats and donations along the way here. Then when we arrived Tiss and Gary were also here so I’ve loved catching up with them again. We’ve finally exchanged details so now there’s no getting rid of me guys!!! Thanks for letting me recharge my gear and the $20 donation. It’s been an awesome day for donations totally $95. Hugest jet star ta’s to Robyn ($10), Brian ($20), Allan and Jo ($20), Tiss and Gary ($20), Yvonne ($5), and Judith ($20). Allan and Jo also gave me a icypole iceblock which was sooo delish guys you rock!! A french family stopped and gave me 2 litres of water and 2 oranges which were devoured when we arrived. brian and his family were travelling through to 70 mile beach on the coast and gave me a cold 600ml bottle of water which didn’t hit the sides burp!! The roadhouse has also generously let us stay here as a freebie and we have loved the swim in the pool, shower and free laundry yay. Rube and I have ridden literally on the kindness, fun and generosity of folk all day. We sooo appreciate it and are love love loving the ride. It’s a totally short post tonight as I still have some have-tos before dinner and bed very soonish. Cash donations have jumped to $1339.35 ching ching a ling xxxxxxxx. Talk soon from Bromme 🙂 x
