There are many of these over rivers- thought we'd cycle over one- it looked like people were yabbying (probably a freshwater shellfish) below. Kyle got a puncture coming down the other side. Did not take long til we had a crowd enjyoying our repair efforts and a 'helpful' local taking whatever nut or tool you had in your hand and having a go himself. By the end of the process we had 13 onlookers. Our helpful friend tried to buy Kyle's wrench off us.
Very noticeable that there are not many areas here we're people are not. Every bit of arable land is cultivated- and many of the steep hills.
The repair meant we had to do the last 2 hours or so of the day in the dark. Most peaceful part of the ride so far. Normally people are yelling hello or staring at us as we ride by- but at night we passed through with a degree of anonymity.
