Thursday the 11th of November 2010
Today was just about getting back to Alice, we had booked our bikes in for another service as well as new back tyres.
So here is the tip, if you are thinking of riding around Australia then be prepared for new tyres and a couple of bike services. Most importantly shop around the Harley dealers, servicing prices and tyre prices vary dramatically.
The only interesting thing that happened today was Alan rescued a Thorny Devil from being road kill.
I must say I like the Alice, they are a tourist friendly town. They were having a Night Market which was pretty cool. Unfortunately the Wi-Fi isn’t free anymore, they are now charging $1 for 12 minutes ohh well.

We waited around for the Harley’s to be finished so we just killed time in the Alice, once they were done we called a cab and went to the local Harley Dealer. With the Harleys loaded we hit the road, it was pretty warm until the heavens opened then it got cool down really quickly. It pretty much rained for the rest of the day.
I saw these statues on the way in and thought they were pretty cool.
As a motorcyclist on a lowered Harley there are some things that concern me, flood ways in torrential rain is one of them. 0.4 of a meter will be a problem for me and 1.4meteres let’s just say I’ll be in over my head...
Alan and I got split up, Alan ended up at Tenant Creek whilst I ended up at Three Ways.
Cheers
