2012 Tour Update.

Currently I have 9 people showing an interest in the Perth to Sydney tour next year.  I need 15 starters for the tour to go ahead, it comes down to numbers. 

The way I've planned the tour is to have roughly 28 days of riding broken up into 6 sections averaging 140-160kms.  I've included 5 rest days.

Having crossed the Nullarbor many years ago I can assure all cyclists that these distances are achieveable. 

For those who are not able to take 5 weeks off work, I've decided to offer the trip in 2 sections.  The first section will be Perth to Port Augusta, South Australia, and Port Augusta to Sydney.

First section:                  1st August to 19th August, Perth to Port Augusta.
Second section:              19th August to 2nd September, Port Augusta to Sydney.

The cost will be $2000 per section.

In relation to equipment that you'll need to bring along with you, make sure you have a 2-3 litre camelbak hydration unit or similar product.  Of course you need your own tent, inflatable mat, and a good sleeping bag for those cold night on the Nullarbor Plains.

Safe riding
Regards Terry
