Wirrealpa, a 1500-square-kilometre sheep and cattle station in the northern Flinders Ranges of South Australia, was the location for the Ulysses annual adventure riders’ special-interest group (SIG) gathering for 2017. Peter Maguire was there.
On a Friday in late April I rode my heavily laden KTM690 across to Woodend for a rendezvous with Peter Murphy and Dete Hasse, both riding Suzuki DR650s, and Finn Butler, who was riding his Triumph Tiger 800XCx. The plan was pretty simple really: ride as much as possible on dirt roads and tracks to arrive at Wirrealpa, South Australia, late on Sunday, camping along the way.
