Mount Isa, Australia


Long 120k ride to Mt Isa from Cloncurry today through a small Mountain range that took 5 hours to ge thru. At least the winds were fair and I finally got some good descents including a fast 5k at the end that took me almost all the way into town!

There is a Mc Donalds here so I used the WiFI to update this blog thru the 9th of August and I used an Inet Cafe to add some pictures. Getting lonely and a little tired of riding but my friends buoy my spirits and so off again after another rest day to the real savannah lands and due west!

Mt Isa post service is incompetent and could not locate my food drop so I will miss my special power foods and have to substitute heavier alternatives.

Off to Cammoweal(pop.300) or rather the bush east of Cammoweal because it is 198 k away from Mt Isa. I will find a bush camp 100k down the road or so and sleep there for the night of the 14th.
