Morning Run in the bush (2)
Successful crossing of the river is one thing. But the most important is (as ever :eek: positioning). IE .. position coming off the ramp and onto the other side. Don't want to get caught near the end as it means a totally frustrating next 20 minutes gradually overtaking as the terrain allows.
Joy though, despite being in the middle of the queue, i landed up parked behind the bikes , which zoomed off first. A cheeky manouvoure my myself (sorry Kombi ) and i was in front. Because virtually the only cars on the road have come across on the ferry (there is a 'dirt road' for 32 km coming from the other direction ... which i admit i mistakenly took once with my brother in the green T ... never again ! ... and there are a few houses along the road ) ... it means a clear run for the next 35 miles to "Central Mangrove". And so it was !

Morning Run in the bush (3 - last)
Coming out of the bushland, and to some dual carrageway, but hardly any houses, farming country up here. Another 9 miles of fast wonderful driving, hardly any traffic. Too soon ... though 3 hours into the trip so far ! ... we turn off onto the F3 freeway for a 40 minute run home back to Sydney. A chance to use 5th gear again (which - fyi - is not the most comfortable gear on a 915 in Right Hand Drive ... as it's right over to the right .. and into one's left thigh !
and we're home !
Thanks for reading ! ;)
