Wagga Wagga (Wogga)

Aboriginal: wagga means crows. Plural means plenty crows. I prefer the modern meaning- "staggering like a drunken man".
Today R & R and admin. Fixing up Sydney shop to box bike and trying to get freighting ex-Sydney to NI. That's if I cannot find a buyer!
Spent lunchtime being interviewed and snapped (wearing NDCC shirt) by the Daily Advertiser. Great to see a town the size of Bangor sustain a daily newspaper. I wonder who tipped them off!! Told the reporter I'll return with a 12 bore shotgun and wipe out the whole magpie population if I come under any more aerial assaults in the morning.
Ride (99 kms) across from Narrandera ytdy woke me up to the grind of long hills. From here to the Pacific coast below Sydney there will be plenty of stiff climbs to get me over the continental dividing range. Heading for Cootamundra-Yass-Goulburn and Wollongong. At Sutherland, just outside Sydney, plan to take the train into the city centre to retain any chance of staying alive. Before you scream 'wuss' all the cyclists do this! Weather holding with fine blue skies 16 C but very chilly dawns. 0 C at night.
