6 September 2010-527 km to Balladonia. A good day to cross the rest of the Nullarbor – blue sky, lots of low cumulous clouds, fair amount of sun., not much traffic. Just before Balladonia we encountered many MCs heading east, reportedly on the way to Alice. One very worrisome thing – the chains on both bikes were very loose. Sprockets looked okay. Tightened the chains by moving the rear wheels back, Sue’s as far as possible, mine almost all the way. Each time we have stopped for service we have enquired about replacing the chains, and each time we were told they were okay for us to make it home. Hope that is correct. Back to Western Time, so we added another 45 minutes. It is nice to sit in front of the motel room in the sun. Still no G3 access. The Nullarbor is indeed an empty place.
