42km. Beer Count 5: After struggling to fit my 15 kg of food that I had collected at the Post Office onto the bike, I decided that something had to go. So I stripped 5kg of equipment that I hadn’t used, or didn’t think I would use, and rode to Coen PO and posted it home. So I didn’t leave until 12:30pm. It was bitumen for 20km, which ended at the biosecurity checkpoint. I had a good talk with one of the guys there and he gave me good information on the road ahead, and a place to camp at Born Creek.He told me it had got up to a maximum of 33C that day, even though it was fairly cloudy, and I was struggling to get much power out of my solar panel. Later on down the dirt road I got offered beer number 5! I stopped at Born Creek which is a fair way off the road and should be quieter. I finished at 5:15pm.
