As informative as news reports had been, Bob Wozga thought the real impact of the recent bushfires would only be clear if he travelled through and saw it for himself. It’s a thought we could all embrace.

From Razorback south of Sydney, a smoke plume arose in the distance and an easterly wind looked like it was blowing back onto itself.

The weather alerts indicated a safe day to travel and the likelihood of a stable week. I packed the DR650 and set out.
