Hi Everybody,

I arrived in Melbourne at 8h04 in the morning exactly.

I left from RockBank at 5h33 after sleeping only 4h as I took some times to update the blog. Anyway on my way I found a huge number of cars along the road. It was difficult to cycle as there were a lot of traffic. I was very suprised to see so many cars around 6 am.

I had done almost 70 km instead of 36 than I forecast due the detour that I had to take to avoid the main roads and the Highways to enter in Melbourne.

Obviously to find my correct way was not so easy even if I used my GPS. I took sometimes some wrong ways. To enter to Melbourne was like a nightmare for me as much of the roads are some kind of highways. It’s very dangerous. I had to take finally some small street to reach the downtown. Two times I also changed my way as the camping car couldn’t go through some roads due to is oversize.

When I arrived in downtown and I took the Elizabeth street to go to Flinders street in order to reach at the end the Federation Square. I didn’t like very much this place that’s why I decided to go further to take some pictures in a green park just close by.

I don’t realize what I have done and I feel good physically at the moment. Maybe it’s only the excitation to be here in Melbourne.  I will be probably dead later. I’m feeling like if I could cycle 4000 km more. Nevertheless in my mind I start having a kind of dullness setting on my saddle. I paddled each day around 7 hours. The time became long.

From Port Augusta as I had changed the landscapes and the weather was more cooler I managed to recharge my mind and my confidence.

In few days I will put a video of the best moments of my adventure. I will put as well some other videos. I didn’t put them earlier as the network for uploading was too slow.

I hope you enjoyed this 24 days. It was a pleasure to speak with you. Don’t forget to give a bit of yourself to IRCAD, Children Cancer Foundation’s or WaterAid.

Have a beautiful week

See you tomorrow
