Days 104 – 105; Fri 31 July – Sat 1 Aug. We are now approximately 12km south of Eneabba, where the very generous Phil and Deanna from the Eneabba Roadhouse kindly donated a tank of fuel for the Hiace and coffees. With today not yet done, gradually Dave mows down the distance to Perth, with WA’s capital city now well under 300km away. A Bird Dog Website Design Byron Bay.

Days 106 – 107; Sun 2 Aug – Mon 3 Aug. The turn around in the weather has been significant, with Dave’s orange beanie and gloves now a frequent sight in the darkness at the start and end of every day, with him even wearing a light weight jumper for most of yesterday. His left hip and leg continue to improve meaning he is currently moving along in less discomfort. Thank you to all of you who have already made a donation. A Bird Dog Website Design Byron Bay.
