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.

The Big Willandra

After checking out the (rarely) full Menindee Lakes, and sampling Menidee's bacon and egg rolls, it was on via the dirt to Ivanhoe. It's always a good idea to check with the locals on road conditions -- the dirt roads that are fine now were impassable not long ago, due to rain. We bush camped in the Willandra National Park last night, and we were delighted to find a fully restored sheep station, with the homestead (pictured) looking out over a manmade billabong.
