Did you learn anything?
Digger

A lot:
- think about how much fuel you need and minimise to improve handling
- travel with someone who uses Lynx
- recon is time well spent
- check opening hours
- Sandstone Pub closed
- turn bike in the direction you are leaving when parking up in a bush camp
- look for alternatives at water crossings
- let your final drive cool before water crossings
- make sure a person going to hospital has id and their valuables
- celebrate the end of a ride
- the importance of clearance of the front mudguard on muddy roads
- a ratchet strap does not always seal a tubeless tyre with a low capacity pump
- take the valve out when trying to rapidly inflate a tyre to seal it
- look at the other end of a problem (His Royal Griceness' loose chain)
