We're already back in Melbourne. Despite how it may seem, we didn't carry a tent (though we did carry bedrolls and sleeping bags) and we were in a borrowed tent at that Tarago Rally. We did attend another rally in Mildura on the trip home and bought a tent for that occasion.

Rested, loaded and ready to head south again (now with both bikes aremed with AirHawks)
