“This was taken about 20km from Goondiwindi in Queensland while I was on the APC Rally,” snapped Melbourne’s Nick Fletcher. “With only three easy days to go on what had been a tough two-week rally, I realised I didn’t have a photo of my own bike, so I stopped for this shot against a wonderful sunset. I spent the night in Goondiwindi and couldn’t get the bike started in the morning. It had got dust behind the filter and destroyed the piston, so that was the end of my rally with a 2000km recovery required to Melbourne. For the record, it’s a DRZ400E, with a 17-litre Safari tank, suspension by Chad’s Off Road, and a relatively modest sprinkling of upgrades. In many ways it’s the perfect bike for the rally.”

An exclusive Adventure Rider Magazine polo is on its way to Nick. Log on to www.advridermag.com.au to share your riding pics.
