Once again, I’m into uncharted (bicycle wise) territory. Most riders cut across the top of the Eyre Peninsula from Ceduna to Port Augusta – only two highlights in 800+ miles. However, I’ve heard good things about the Eyre and want to check it out. If I get too far behind due to weather, injury, fatigue or whatever, I can either a) cut across the top, or b) maybe take a ferry from Port Lincoln to Adelaide?

• Adelaide: “Firstly if you don't find Adelaide a fine city you will be a rare individual indeed. It is very laid back with a CBD entirely surrounded by parklands and a 'river' bolting straight through the middle from the hills to the sea along which is the very enjoyable Linear Park cycleway…” Stuart Clement, a resident of Adelaide and a gentleman who has helped immensely with my planning.
