Left coff around 9am and got on the high way and i was flying down a hill and on the side of the road was another guy on a bike and he was heading south as well. He had a little fire going enough to boil the billy. So after a coffie we got o the road. His name was Rollin and he was on a few weeks holiday and for his time off he was cycleing from Brisbane to New castle. His wife was in holiday so this was gis idea of getting away. See im not the only crazy one. We had lunch on the side of the road and talked for a while then off again. He ended up turning off near mackville to go to the coast. Who know i mnay run into him again. 80k for the day

The nexted morning i got talken to an older couple who had retierd and was traveling. they invited me into there carvan and made me weekbix for breakfast and then toast. and after 3 coffies i got moveing there names were Harold and dianne they were real good to me.

I was another great day on the road but i didnt reaken i would run into rollin again but when i was on a big stright just injoying my self and from behined he camp rideing up nexted to me scearing the shit out of me. So we got to into another day on the road. We stopped at a servo for lunch and pushed real hard in the arvo and hard a great fast ride. i stoped after about 110k in a rest stop and i was serten it was the last time i run into Rollin.

After a few more days of travel and getting into a bike rack again, that was fun. And a real big day of hills but you carnt win them all but i got to New Castle
I stayed at a backpackers in the city and cleaned up. That night myself jack jon and Rachel all went out on the piss. Then while we were all drink and i was telling them my story and rideing with Rollin for 2 days. The out of no where to much suprise Rollin just walked around the corner. It was unbeliveable just as i was talken to a group of people about him here he is in frount of me. So anyway we talk for a few hours and spoke of out last few days on the road. But at least this time i got an email and contacts this time. It was a great week over all and was great been able to ride with some one else.
