Day 9

Mt Isa to Tennant Creek 660 km

Crossing the Border

The Border Crossing – Blink and you miss it

 190 kM to Camooweal, shortly after we were in the Territory and 130km speed limits – now we are really making tracks.130kph

The roads are wide, smooth and straight, although a little like a roller coaster at times.

ONto Tennant Creek

Plenty of road trains, well over 50 metres Long, which just about blow you off the road as the pass. You have to get down low on the bike to reduce the drag and to assist stabilisation.

There are a lot of unfenced grazing along here so we do need to be cautious of the car eating cattle – which get much bigger in these parts.

Another very hot day on the road, which was quenched by a dip in the pool and some very cool refreshments.
