Big relief today. B&B owner in Fremantle emailed to say second of two bike parcels had finally arrived. According to Parcel Force data tracking it had been signed for 24 hours earlier. But no sign of it. Had vision of parcel getting dumped by delivery driver at wrong address.

So far lost 9 pounds but big problem getting into the 13 stone band....one day 13 stone 13 pounds but after rehydrating back to 14st 1 lb. A little slippage but so far notched up 62 'booze free' days.
The Thorn plus sleeping bag, panniers etc packed up and shipped out in two boxes on Fri June 5. Just hope Oz customs don't get difficult when they arrive at the Danum House B&B in Fremantle.
Before packing the bike gave the Rohloff Speedhub an oil change which should easily last the distance.
