MICK AND I HAD TO GO AND HAVE A BETTER LOOK AT FINKE IN THE DAYTIME AND IT WASN'T MUCH BETTER. I DON'T THINK ANY OF THE CARS HAD TYERS LEFT ON THEM. THE PHONE BOOTH WAS NEXT TO THE LOCAL HOSPITAL. WE HEADED HEADED TO KULGERA FOR PETROL AND RUNNING REPAIRS ON OUR SPARE WHEEL AS IT HAD BROKEN A WELD DUE TO THE ROUGH ROADS. WE MET A LADY THAT HAD BEEN RIDING AROUND THE WORLD ON A BIKE FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS, SHE HAS BEEN IN AUSTRALIA SINCE 2010 AND WILL BE HERE TILL 2012. CYLING DUTCH GIRL.COM IS HER WEB PAGE. WE ALSO MET A MALE TOURIST THAT HAD DONE THE SAME ROUTE AS US ON HIS BIKE AND IT HAD TAKEN HIM 10 MONTHS. NOW IT WAS TIME TO HIT THE ROAD AGAIN AND GO TO AYRES ROCK. AT THE PETROL STATION AT THE TURN OFF TO AYRES ROCK WE SAW THE LOCAL ABORGINALS LITTERALLY PULLING A DIFF OUT OF A BOKEN DOWN CAR. THE MAIN ROAD DOWN TO AYRES ROCK WAS RATHER DAUNTING FOR ME AS WE WERE DRIVING INTO FIRE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE ROAD. ARRIVED AT AYRES ROCK RESORT AT 5.30PM
