Day 22 Hughenden to Mt Isa 535kms

Not much to report today.... We got away around 8 and knocked off 250 KM's before we stopped for a bacon an egg sandwich and coffee at the BP roadhouse... This is becoming a daily ritual. The Roadhouses have become our saviour as we ride in to small one horse towns... I recall a comment by John before we left Fremantle 3 weeks ago " a road house you have got to be kidding".  

The first 450kms was boring boring straight the only excitement as dodging the road kill... And there was plenty off it, the most we have seen on the trip... We rode into Cloncurry the hottest place in Australia at 51.3c .... It was a lovely 23c when we arrived.. The ride and scenery from Cloncurry to Mt Isa was awesome ... The centre of the outback... we passed a Burke and Wills monument on the way..

Booked into the Ibis in Mt Isa...l not sure what will happen for the rest of the day but I am sure beer and food will be involved...

Not many pics today
