Almost there… to major stop one on the way to London. 3,400km down. 450km to go.
It’s cooler today than the last few days – “only” 36 degrees. I’m still dripping like a watering spout. While I’m riding at least there’s a 120km/h breeze to wick the perspiration away, but while I’m writing this I’m in my very own swimming pool. Lovely!
I suspect the Telstra internet dongle has just shut down from overheating; so I’ll keep this short, see if I can figure that out to at least post this I heartbeat message, and be in touch from Darwin. Yup, the modem shut down 4g as it is operating at 57 degrees – well above healthy.
Sigh. Hopefully this draft will still be here to for publishing when next the battery is cool enough. A couple of kms of highway driving will help – both the battery and me. Will post as is when I can…
PS from Darwin – yes the draft was still here, but something fishy is happening to the images I’m loading and neither are here. I’ll worry about that another day. Thanks for your patience!
