We had a strong headwind and really buggy ride from Ongarup to Esperance as our oil cooler showed, fortunately the screen kept them off of us. Every now and again one would hit me on the leg which hurt so I tucked my legs in tighter, then I heard “Ow ! What was that? Ow [...]

People often ask us what’s the longest you’ve spent anywhere, we can now answer that question… Perth. Not all in the city centre and not all with the same people, it had a nice vibe, we liked it and we were really lucky with the people we met. Some of our time here was spent [...]
