Too late to rescue the climate?
Professor Peter Carter agrees with Professor David Suzuki that it’s too late. Tough cookies for the little kids; they have been sacrificed on the altar of the economy. A ‘false god’ if ever there was one, and it even demands kiddies be sacrificed. Just like Moloch Baal.
Bikepacking.
I’ve lost count of kilometres travelled on the east coast. In 2023 alone, I did just over 6000. Not bad for an old fella. Below is a map of New South Wales and Victoria showing in red routes travelled, some two or three times. I did get to Tasmania, but after a day, an animal instinct told me to leave. I’m not sure why, and I might go there again.
Next ride, planets aligned and Gramps in working order, I want to do the Central West Trail, but starting from Newcastle. That means Newcastle to Dunedoo, then the loop around the Central West and back to Newcastle. The total distance will be approximately 1000 kilometres. Some of the ride will be on gravel and dirt tracks. Map of the Central West Trail below.
Departure would be in early September.
