Solar Challenge Day 5: From Dusk till Dawn
Thursday October 29th. With our little detour and the frictionless ride of SolarWorldNo.1 we were 750 kilometres behind the team. But the early bird catches the worm: 6 a.m. the dawn is breaking at the mystic Ayers Rock, just a quick coffee and we hit the road to chase the SolarWorldNo.1. So we drove all day, just taking breaks for gas, coffee and sandwiches. Passing the lunar landscape of Coober Pedy all the way down on Stuart Highway till we finally arrived at the team’s campsite for the night, which was ca. 35 kilometres away of Port Augusta.
The last day of the race was in front of us and tenseness and relief alternated when we killed our food and drink reserves. Our tents and the Moho comforted us for the last night and we could not await the morning to come.
