Make sure your bike and belongings are well secured. Port Augusta has quite a colourful reputation. No doubt you'll understand what I mean when you see some of the towns inhabitants. Good luck.
ps: Where are you from ?

Port Augusta? Isn't that where Prince Charles went for his honeymoon?

It's the furthest you can get up Spencer's Gulf :D

No worries Jarrod,if you get into any difficulties dont hesitate to call. Oh yeah if you get the chance you have to do Horricks Pass on your bike,it starts at Wilmington and ends about 30k of nice twisties later,worth it.
