Steady on, it is not always sunny
I was on a long motorcycle ride around Aus and met a couple of German push bike riders who had just come off the boat from SE Asia. Had a bit of a chat and they said they were riding the bicycles to Adelaide. As it is over 3000km to Adelaide I made the usual suggestions about the need for food, water, sun protection and also that the road trains are prime mover plus four trailers and travel quickly. Other things such as the distance between accommodation is large and if camping stay a good distance from the road. I suggested to talk to others in the town also. I ran into them later in the day and asked how the planning was going.
The answer to me was "we think we will buy car"
