The Gulf to Gulf Mission

We’re riding Gulf to Gulf to help bridge the poverty gulf among the poor children of Bangladesh. Won't you ride with us from the comfort of your computer and consider making a donation? We're riding from the Gulf of Carpentaria to the Spencer Gulf , via the Birdsville Track. Check out the route map at the bottom of the page.

We want to raise $10,000 to fund the education (up to Year 2) for 1 year for 600 children in Bangladesh, who otherwise will miss out on a basic education. Read the donation page for all the details -- we would really appreciate your support. This project is administered by TEAR Australia in association with Symbiosis International.

And more Bedourie

Gus here: Still in Bedourie.  The mail plane should be in any moment with a new front brake disc.  Spent the last day and a half organising spare parts and deliveries from the Bedourie public phone box.  Not even Telstra mobile gets to Bedourie.  Unfortunately can't get the old front disc off here in Bedourie.  Been told there's a legend of a mechanic in Birdsville (which is convenient).  Just to throw a spanner in, the Birdsville track is closed at the moment, but the locals say it could open tomorrow so we're hitting the road at day break!
Unfortunately we don't have any way of putting our photos online at the moment, but due to demand more photos of Gus on the way!
