Crossing the Sierra Gorda
Cycling the mountains of Sierra Gorda Biospheric Reserve
Into the Pilbara
After 4 days of relaxation and recovery in Broome, Peter and I took off towards Roebuck roadhouse. It was really easy due to tailwinds; 90 mins and we were in the pool. The journey waiting for us ahead was something else; 290kms of head/cross winds, limited shades and no water collection. By 6AM our wheels…
Litchfield National Park
Litchfield National Park was great, but Kakadu simply took my breath away. Mike shared the same opinion. Despite beautiful waterfalls and swimming rock holes, the WOW factor didn’t match the one in Kakadu. On top of that, the large crow was simply too much for us, mainly English and Irish idiots getting drunk and disturbing families and others wanting to have some quiet time.
Kakadu National Park and towards Darwin
Kakadu National Park was a definite highlight so far, Ubirr and Jim Jim falls taking the golden awards. The riding was fantastic despite the relentless head and cross winds, but the scenery was incredible. The early morning cruise on the Yellow river is another thing I will never forget.
Undura National Park and its lava tubes
Undara National park, volcanic region hosting a unique feature; the lava tubes stretching up to 100kms supporting wildlife and a unique eco-system. A short side trip from the Savannah Way in Northern Queesnland, it’s the only place in the world such phenomenon of this scale can be seen. A definite must-see.
