Aileron – Bush Camp

Oh the pleasure of a Tail Wind!

Today’s schedule was to complete the 60kms ride into a place called Ti Tree.
Then tomorrow was going to be a rest day there.

But assisted greatly by a tail wind, Peter reached Ti Tree quite early, so after an hour and a half rest, he decided he’d had enough of Ti Tree and pushed on to make the most of the tail wind.

45 kms further down the track he decided to pull off the road for an unscheduled bush camp. Quite a brave decision!!

When he rang, he reported that the ankle is now feeling good. He hasn’t needed to take any more medication, and he is able to walk on it with no problems. The fire was going, and a beef curry and rice were on the fire for dinner.

So good news, everything seems to have resolved itself, and the trip will continue.
He is now ahead of schedule!!!
