Another Milestone! Roebuck Plains Roadhouse to Broome - 34kms

Yay! We've made it to Broome! Left the Roadhouse at 7.30am, in daylight for a change!

A leisurely ride with a long, gradual incline and occasional head wind all the way to Broome. A reasonable shoulder to cycle on, which we appreciated as the traffic was very busy in both directions.
Around 10kms from Broome, I developed a puncture in my rear tyre which Del fixed.

Arrived around 11.00am and greeted by Peter and then Bindy with donations. Thank you both for your kind words and support.

Took a room at the Roebuck Bay Motel then off to find Broome Bikes to buy a thorn proof inner tube, chain lube, a puncture kit and new cycle glasses for Del (his others were disintegrating slowly).

Love Broome! It's small but touristy, with cafes, restaurants and gift shops.
The Japanese introduced pearl diving to the area. 

Spending 3 nights here, resting, restocking and discovering more of this popular town.
