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 day we didn't go to Birdsville

Gus here:  To add to Mark's spiel, it rained all night on our tents in Bedourie and though we could have headed down to Birdsville the track further south was shut and we felt there was a chance we could be rained in and stuck there so Windorah was the new destination.
Mud.  I ended up rolling in it.  So did the bike.  So after a long cold ride found ourselves in Windorah, which is a really nice tiny town to find yourself in after a wet and cold day on the road.
Next stop Eulo, where they have mobile coverage!
Yeah Tim, Midar!  I told Mark that story while we were stuck in Bedourie.  But we didn't abandon the vehicle this time.
