Day 20 Cooktown to Cairns then the outback (Undara) 494 KM's

An interesting day which started in Cooktown and ended somewhere in the outback after a wrong turn.. Great ride from Cooktown down to Cairns to get our rear tyres... We stopped off at the "roadhouse with legs " for breakfast but where disappointed with 2 old boilers servicing... Anyway the breakfast and coffee where good... Got into Cairns just before lunch, headed to the bike stop where Cameron quickly fitted the tyres $270 bargain...cheaper than Perth.

We fuelled and headed up the Atherton tableland on the Savannah Way... We started to run out of daylight at forty mile scrub where we made the wrong turn towards Mt Surprise... We passed a few very crappy places along the way (according to John)  so we push on to find somewhere better to stay... We came across the sign to Undara ( John suggested we go and investigate) a stroke of genius... A great place where you stay in old train carriages... ( see pics ). We had to get past the wild life and cattle ... A few heart stopping moments .
