Day 87 - Nepean River to Marulan - 84km
I was awoken by the cold and the temperature had dropped to 4 degrees overnight. I thought back to my time in the NT where I couldn't even get to sleep until past midnight due to the heat.
After living up in Darwin for a while, I had become accustomed to the fairly even length of each day. Today it dawned on me that there is so much daylight with the sun rising around 6am and it not getting dark until around 8pm and we haven't even reached the solstice yet.
I passed a truck on its side and wondered if it had been a victim of the high winds from yesterday, I couldn't see any other way it could have happened.
The ride on remained busy and truck heavy, my grip on my handlebars from yesterday had left them aching. It was slow going as I up and down over many hills. The landscape slowly turning into farmland.
I found an old road and set up for the night, I have grown accustomed to the road noise by now and slept well, a little warmer than the night before.
