Day Nine
Port Pirie/ To Wapma Rangers National Park
🎄 Day 09 – Christmas Eve Ride 🎄
Good morning everyone.
Day 09 greeted me with something truly special a quiet, beautiful 24°C day, clear skies, and the softest breeze. One of those days that makes you slow down, breathe, and really appreciate where you are.
📍 Location: Port Pirie, beside Wapma Rangers National Park

I rolled out at 7:03 am, not in a rush just letting the road lead the way. Passing through Yorketown, Warooka, Hardwicke Bay, Minlaton, and Moonta, every stretch of road felt calm and reflective, especially knowing it was Christmas Eve.
I paused at Wallaroo, then stopped for a quiet drink at Port Broughton, before finishing the day here in Port Pirie.
Christmas Eve on the road hits a little different. It reminds you how precious time is, how far you’ve come, and how important the people in your life truly are.
🎄 Merry Christmas to you all. Hold your loved ones tight, reach out to those you miss, and never take a moment for granted.
Thank you for sharing this journey with me. ❤️
I’ll see you on the road.
