Tuesday 27th August We did get up a bit earlier, but not enough to mage a huge difference, we left the construction site just after 8 after a coffee and biscuit breakfast.
With the sun just breaking through and the wind very light it made for great conditions. Linney had a flat another piece of wire in his tyre, as we got around to fixing it I got the patch sorted, not to Keith's liking so said f**** sort one out yourself, must be tired, we were soon back on the road. Then stopped for a picture in the shade of an Acacia tree, bit of a snack and a drink of cream soda (forgot to mention yesterday,we brought 12L of cream soda yesterday thinking it water) its ok but horrible in coffee.
With the wind getting up it was getting tougher and tougher, it was just a matter of getting through it, With sand blowing in are faces and the head wind getting stronger it was so good to find a little place open serving cold drinks and food. After a good fill and plenty of fluids we knew we could achaive the next 30 miles. Around about the half way mark Linney stopped at the top a hill, adjacent to the only property in miles, obviosly with his rugged good looks they invited him in, not so keen when the ugly brothers turned up!
With the normal photo shoots and handshakes we ended up up having another meal with them, another big plate of egg fried rice and noodles, followed by melon . They wished us luck as they waved us goodbye. Once back on the road Linneys gears played up, one of the guys had a little ride on his bike, we played around with them a little, they soon sorted themselves out, good news.
then we hit a police check, they are getting quicker, we just sat and waited, back on the road after 20 mins. just as we got going the other side of the police check,we met two English girls on touring bikes Georger and Christina from Yorkshire and Essex respectively, great girls true adventures, it was really good swapping stories and giving advise,with a couple of pics and all the social media swaps, we wished each other all the best in our travels,, it brought a smile to all are face to chat with them,great to meet them,
After that it was just a matter of finding a place to camp again, after we had got some more water water (not cream soda). We pulled off the road to find a place up a track, relaxed a little had a pot noodle with a can of baked beans,with a cup of coffee, then set up camp. W did notice a few people watching us, but hey ho.
Sure enough as soon as we had tried to get are heads down the police turned up, Keith out in his underpants (enough to scare most people off) soon had it all sorted, they just wanted to know when we were moving on.
