Thanks in advance for your support!
My wife was going to help with support at Laurel Hill but has injured her wonky knee and can't sit in/drive a hire car from Syd to Melb.
Regards
Perry

That ride got me interested. Didn’t figure on a baby after 10 years of half-heartedly trying though... broached the idea of doing it in 2021 and Louisa seemed receptive

The article specifically says it's unknown and that is just one possibility.. I don't think it's helpful to speculate.

Many great shots showing the riders exhaustion on day 2 to elation on day 4
Easy to lose yourself in the photos for a few hours.
