Stage 6: DUBBO - YEOVAL

Here I am heading past the Dubbo Zoo. Obley Rd is a popular road for cyclists - fairly quiet, although the surface is a bit ordinary.

At the start of the day I visited the old school - Orana Heights Public School, in Dubbo. Was good to have a bit of a chat with a few kids and a few teachers. Brought back happy memories.

The road was fairly quiet today, but the wind made the going a bit tougher than previous days. Took 3:18 to travel the 69 km, so that makes the average for today just under 21.

Arrived at Yeoval at 3 pm. Not bad seeing we spent nearly an hour enroute at Wambangalang Field Studies Centre. Thanks Bob and others.

Tonight we're staying on Tony and Bronwyn Johnson's property just out of town. Thanks guys. You can see where the avan is placed on the left. As long as the young pups don't chew through the electrical extension cord, or the lights will go out eh!

Tomorrow I'll head to Orange and pick up Ian Kelly as I pass through Molong. Meanwhile Fay continues to do a stirling job. Even managed a bit of slipstreaming today Al.... reminiscent of the trip into Deniliquin some years ago. Gotta keep the average up somehow!
