Day 40: Clare to Gawler

Everyone seemed to have a comfortable night except for a couple of (military- according to Jim) helicopters flew over in the early hours of e morning. It appears only Jim and Jacquei heard them so everyone else obviously did sleep well.

We left later today and stopped for a coffee at Auburn at a very nice cafe which catered for cyclists and they were very excited with what we were doing. We again stopped at another town on the way and had another morning tea. Peter is still on the bike path and still enjoying himself. Doug has damaged his cable and is riding on his own as he has very few gears and is going quite fast. Jacquei was riding with Di for awhile but then she dropped back to take photos.

We were all in at Gawler by lunchtime and were given a spot down by the creek on lovely green grass. Collis asked about a camp kitchen but all they have is the BBQ area. The manager came down with a fridge for us.

Tonight is Peter's last night and Collis ordered in pizzas and some wine and beer for the occassion. Tomorrow we have two new riders joining us for the last section home.
