A polish guy did the CSR alone and by bike. Incredible pics on sandy tracks.

Well, nothing is impossible (in my opinion). I want just to know the best variant. Please, could you help me with my itinerary, or give other variant.

Thanks a lot!!!

Ok. It is not a bad variant. but later?? Tanami road?? Tanami road is with asfalt??

Thank you for to give me ideas!!

Tanami track is a gravel road except for a couple of 6.5km stretches.

Even there you are **remote** and well removed from any water... except for Billiluna, Rabbit Flat and Yuendemu... although your progress would be a lot more rapid.

Yep I would recommend that to Amigo.

Hola amigo!!!

Yes, of course, I am going to bring with my satellital phone, EPIRB, and GPS.

Hey Tonka

You got a motor in that 3 wheeler???.....pmsl

All we have to do is keep watching the WA news in October.

Keep watching This site

Hi Willem!!

Congratulations for the website. It's very nice!!

I am only asking for information or help. If you mind, please, don't read my messages. That's simple!!

At the same time, you could give another safety variants. Thanks in advance!!

In fact, you wrote me in other post:

"The Kidson is OK to ride with not too much sand and few dunes to cross. (In fact there is not so much sand until you reach the Simpson Desert where you will be pushing your bicycle a lot even on the Rig Road)."

No "problem" until Simpson desert??

I understand that Simpson desert is impossible to ride, ok. But what about before Simpson desert (Kidson, Gary, Gumbarrel...). Rideable tracks??

Thanks!!

These are typical childish words over the internet.

You have been told by many informed people on this forum of the dangers of riding your bike in the outback of Australia in the summer months from October to the end of March.

Still you persist with this stupid idea.

In my other reply to you I stated that there was water along the Kidson but south from the Kidson there is not enough water to sustain a lone traveller.

Most extreme activities are doable. The majority of gravel tracks in Western Australia and South Australia are hard surface, corrugated tracks with some sandy sections.

If you are so committed to this venture then you must have the ability to take the time off from April onwards.

If you continue to persist to do an irresponsible act at the wrong time of the year in this country then there are two scenarios which will come to the fore
A. You will die out there
B. You will be rescued by our Emergency Services, deported from Australia and made to pay for the cost of the Search and Rescue.

Like I said before. Come up with a better idea or bugger off.


Cheers

Hey Craig!!!

Thanks a lot. Good variant, why not? Well, It looks too much safe that my own variant.

Has It some asfalt (tharmac) part?? Or there are big tracks in the middle of nowhere??

Your post is one of the most helpful!!

All very remote outback roads of which 95% are on gravel, clay or sand. I asume you have a map that shows this?
Many of the reply's you are getting here may not seem to be helpful for three reasons.
1: Some of the people responding have never actually been out to the area you intend to travel & haven't attempted anything remotely challenging in their lives yet somehow think they are qualified to answer.
2: Many of the questions you ask should already be known by someone planning a trip of this scale putting in question your ability to complete it safely.
3: When people say that route is not possible, it's too sandy & there is no water available, they are being very helpful, in fact they may just be saving your life if they can change your mind :-)
