You back in the UK, dude?
I was thinking yesterday I need to hit you up about what went down during your race. You've now done more of Oz than me :)
hippy-
Yes, came back a bit earlier than planned after it all went wrong last Friday. Got back last Tuesday night and have been gradually getting on top of the jet lag, accumulated fatigue and general major brain distraction that comes from doing one of these things. Hands and feet are a bit numb. Typing the letter 'a' is my main issue as little finger on left hand seems not to work any more.
It was a hell of an experience - great to see Australia but where were all the fucking kangaroos? I saw about 5 in the whole country, and zero koala bears. Plenty of flies, though.
Nice people, shame about the driving.
Wouldn't recommend the Nullarbor (at least not for anyone who likes other people).
Mt Lofty, Great Ocean Road, etc - they were good, but probably better in the daytime!
