BMW Enduro and Off Centre Rally (OCR) Combo.
Re: BMW Enduro and Off Centre Rally (OCR) Combo.
The featureless moonscape east of Coober Pedy.
The southern tip of Lake Eyre...no surprises; it was dry this far south. 12 metres below sea level.
There is still a lot of the old Ghan Railway infrastructure left in ruins on the Oodnadatta Track....the Track originally existed to service the Railway. It is no longer a track but a high speed gravel road.

Some Ferals had set up a Hippy Camp on the Oodnadatta Track protesting something...I didn't read their sign so I don't know what cause it was. I'm sure it was important to them (important enough to set up in the middle of nowhere).
Navigation made easy...follow the Orange arrows unless you want the easy option. For the easy option you have to follow the Green arrows.

The country looks much the same...your bike seems a little different to mine though.BillB wrote:

Okay, the Safari Enduro is over at Broken Hill. Steve and I - nothing broken!
Hot off the press - next year might see a GS and TS Safari in W.A. It's under discussion.

Some people are like Slinkys, you can't help smiling when you push them downstairs.

One of the two lead riders who signpost the route...he hit a roo at speed and did some damage to his right shoulder. Some of you guys may know him. He instructs on the Training Courses.
There were some spectacular 'offs' in this patch of sand. Thankfully, I was there to capture some of it on video

I wish I had seen this before. I would have been keen but have made alternative arrangements now.boomer61 wrote:Do you want to do the Simpson on the 1200 between the Border run and the OCR.
I am considering it but need a another rider to go with.
Re: BMW Enduro and Off Centre Rally (OCR) Combo.
How are you thinking of coming back to WA...I'm thinking about returning via the APY Lands. Great road, stunning vistas. You need a range of 900 km if you come out at Warburton or a range of about 750km (?) if you come out via Warakurna. I'll be heading to Gascoyne to go to the country race meet there.Hill Billy wrote:Good to see you still living the dream Steve.

I will have the range but I won't have the time. I'm afraid it's slab home for me.Digger wrote:How are you thinking of coming back to WA...I'm thinking about returning via the APY Lands.

I've been across there before. Is fuel not available at Wingelina any more?
Re: BMW Enduro and Off Centre Rally (OCR) Combo.
Update;
I fly back to Perth today (Tuesday) and will return to Adelaide next Wednesday to collect the bike and continue to OCR.
SPOT Link is not here lol.
So much to do; so little time.

Not sure...never checked or called in. I thought they were all closed roads and closed communities so I try not to attract attention.Hill Billy wrote: I've been across there before. Is fuel not available at Wingelina any more?
