The Adventure is Complete -- 7288km travelled

The ride was brilliant and everything we hoped for.
 
It had its highlight of great people and magnificent natural sights and wonderful animals and birds. We had a couple of low points when the bike had a flat battery which ended up with a high because we over-came it without any mechanics. We also had great country courtesy in the country towns and country service when we needed to get bad fuel out of the bike.
