Camooweal Pony Club

The finish line at the Camooweal Pony Club and race grounds. We camped here overnight after the race from Mount Isa.

Old and New

On the right is the old undulating single lane highway from Mount Isa to Camooweal. On the left is the new highway. Luckily for the cyclists in the Border Run charity ride they don't have to use the old road.

Border Run Charity Cycle

This weekend I did some support driving for a cycle team doing the first Border Run. It was a ride for multiple charity organisations, leaving from Mount Isa and riding to the Queensland - Northern Territory border. All up approximately 202 kilometres. Most teams took turns riding and resting, but some tough souls cycled the whole distance.

A different angle

These bikes are nice and shiny, clean and new. Just wait for the outback dust. I wish them luck, it will be a hard week of work before they return to town.

Endeavour Cannonball Charity Ride

On Saturday a Cannonball Charity Ride for the Endeavour Foundation started out from the local Bunnings store in town. The bikes and riders started out fresh, leaving town at 8:30am headed north.
