In 1989 we ( my wife gisela and I ) started in Adelaide our trip around Australia. First we travelled by bus to Alice Springs and Ayers Rock with a 2 days stop at Coopers Pedy. Back in Adelaide we bought 2 Bicycles and busticket to Perth. This trip lasted 36 hours. From Perth we continued the circle. 8 month later we were back in Adelaide.
