All of the NSW participants are likely to be locked out of travelling interstate, borders are slamming shut around us again, not likely to be reopened in 2 weeks.

Yes. We were going via Broken Hill and Port Augusta but now heading north via Mount Isa. About the same distance (3,000km from Brisbane to the start) but such a bloody boring road.

Very sorry for the NSW mob. They had better sprint for Queensland or South Australia right now before they shut the gates.

Absolutely hopeless response. We have about 50 people a day with covid in one state so they slam the borders closed while the loudmouths talk about the "success" of other countries who have lifted their restrictions but still have 10's of thousands of cases a day. We can just hope reason prevails and everybody gets to the start line.

Hi

Hope people taking part will share their photos and videos of the trip. Sounds like a great trip.

Cheers Phil

Aside from the effects covid will have, that is such a great intended turn out! Good luck to those planning to go.

Just come in as a bit of history. Alice Springs 1943. Even have an "in the background" for CMP people. Photo taken from much the same place today.

Sorry about that after so much preparation. Mechanical, Covid or personal?
