As with most countries that we cycle in, people usually give us a fair share of the road and treat us with respect. Unfortunately Australia has more than its fair share of wankers......who like to buzz past us closer than is necessary and/or yell obscenities as they scream past. Last night, as we cycled into town, some pissed-up cretins in hi-viz yelled 'get off the road morons' from the shade of the pub verandah. I suspect that these enlightened modern Australians are exactly who the geezer with his Make Australia Great posters is aiming at.
We are now half way back to Brisbane and the weather has gone into overdrive. The high today was 44.8 degrees C (a personal 'best') with clear blue skies and we are starting to long for a few metres of rain. While we waited for a couple of beers to chill in the freezer we had a wallow in the pool and we are now on the veranda listening to the trucks engage a nice low gear for the hill. This is very loud and the vibration shakes the TV off the shelf.
