Day 9
This ride started with just us doing something that we thought would be an adventure. The point was the adventure, not the sightseeing, landmarks or photo opportunities. We pick the roads we want to take because of the roads, not the scenery, you want landmarks, get on your f*&^ing bike. We are taking photos at every stop now, if that stop coincides with a landmark, thatâ€s what the photo will be. If that stop is at a service station with a gravel driveway and a rusty bowsers, thatâ€s what youâ€ll get. Hope you like it.
Tonight is the landmark post, weâ€ve been through all the photos we have and picked out the ones you might recognise.
Here is the burial place of Burke and Wills after their savage massacre at the Battle of Little Big Horn.
Famous destination of the Russian Aristocracy, their collection of Faberge hand-crafted relics is worth the trip alone. We spent hours admiring their hand beaten silver wear and we couldnâ€t get Simmo out of the gift shop.
The garrison where Nepoleon was imprisoned on Alba. Oddly, everyone walks around with their hand jammed in their jacket. As a sign of respect we did the same.
We finally did find the burial place of Jimmy Hoffa. Canâ€t divulge where it is as it is a ongoing investigation.
In the background you may notice that this is the location of the second shooter in Dallas.
