Took off early, about 8.30 and was only going to head to north of Mackay. didn't realise how short the journey was going to be, I would have ended up stopping at about 11.30am, so decided to hell with it I will go all the way to Groper Creek. Arrived at around 3.30 so was about 6 and a bit hours travelling. A long way towing a van. I was stuffed when I got here. Only incident was that I almost ran out of fuel between Mackay and Proserpine. Get looking for a decent servo but did find one 30k's short of Proserpine.
This is the furthest north I have been since Jeff Hill and I rode our bikes to Cairns, many many years ago.
When I arrived at Groper Creek I expected to find a sleepy caravan park with not that many people in it. Ha! it was like a fishing comp was on, there was so many vans, boats and people.
The next blog entry I will look around the park and do some fishing and report back.
This was my trip
