10 Deserts Solo Cycle Epic

On the eve of your expedition, go well Russell. This will be the time of your life. We'll be looking forward to hearing from you on ABC Radio.

Looks all good to see you on the tracks. Happy riding

Good Luck Mate, You are doing it for a worthy cause.

Hi Russell, just heard about your amazing trip as I came back from riding Gulf2Gulf on my mtb!
Wishing you all the best out there, boil the bore water and remember cattle grids make excellent shade :o)

Good luck!

Hi Russ,

We're all on your page. Enjoy your experience. 30 years ago Isaac's dad, Paul, crossed the Nullabor...he's really on your page. Hey and today is 05.05.09...that's a special day!

Dodge the bulldust...pull beanie over head; don't sleep in dry creek beds - you don't know when the water will come; don't wade over flooded creek beds - croc's rule! Beware of rain coat when trucks passing - may act as a kite.

We'll be checking in often...it's in the blood. All the best for your mission.

Hi Russ, In case you get a chance to log on somewhere the tool was sent on Monday by express post. It should be there by Thursday, if not sooner.
Hope it is the right one... reckon it is.

Hi Russell,
Well done hope this email finds you well. What an awesome bike, I want one.

Hi Russell.
It is great to see you have come so far and keeping well. We met you at Lake Ayre South and heard about your awesome adventure. You are an inspiration to so many. Keep those legs going.
You are so close. All the best and hope you enjoy the last leg.

Congratulations Russell, it looks as if you have completed your journey. Have tracked your progress from Walkers Crossing. You have inspired me to study habitats as a theme in Science for school, the first being deserts! All the best, an awesome, amazing journey.
Cheers
