On a slightly lighter note. I also paid a visit to Curtis Island which is about an 1 1/2hr barge ride not far from where I live. The Islands approximately 50kms long & about 10kms wide. There are a few residential houses at the southern end with the rest being made up of Cattle stations. There are numerous tracks & trails to enjoy up & down the island. So I donned the DRZ in its older set of plastics & headed of to the barge.



To arrive here..







About half way up the island I came across this nice little spot..





And just to the left was a beach just screaming out to be 'Roosted' upon, so I happily obliged which is where I spent the best part of my day.



The DRZ was a get bike & would have loved to have hung on to it but sadly can't justify 2 bikes. So it had to make way for the Tenere. Time is a great healer & I am currently enjoying my new acquaintance immensely.
