Toompine to Glentuckie Station.
Tarmac ride down rural roads to Eulo. Several stops to check rear tyre. (It's a while since I've ridden on full knobby tyres and it takes a bit to get used to.)
Stopped at Eulo for fuel and a pie. The shop assistant was another backpacker. You get used to european accents absolutely everywhere even in the remotest places.
Pity more Aussie kids dont get out and see more of their own country and experience the unique lifestyle of these areas.
We rode down the Cuttaburra Road to Glentuckie.It's great to see the property so good.
A warm greeting and a cold beer, what more can you ask for.
Lyn and John Parsons have owned this property for several years and have expressed interest in providing accomodation to indivduals and small parties (say 6 to 8 persons).
This would utilise their well equipped but basic shearing quarter accomodation.
It is perfect for adventure motorcyclists. You wont find it listed in tourist brochures but Glentuckie is shown on Hemma Great Desert Tracks South East Sheet just above the NSW border and east of Hungerford.
You need to contact John or Lyn on 07 46554027 to book for a unique station experience.
I'm very tired today and Luke and I are not interested in changing another tyre. Will change Luke's tomorrow.
