We were up at sparrows for the hour long ride out to Newmont's Pajingo underground operation. We arrived at site and were in time to address the oncoming shift about the importance of the RFDS to those living and working in remote areas. After our spiel we had a worker approach us and tell us his RFDS story. He injured his neck underground whilst driving a bogger, and the RFDS liased via phone to the underground to provide the correct advice for how to move him, administer pain medication and so on - hopefully the full story will be on our site soon.
We then had to get on with it, and head to Tom's Mums place in Mareeba. We went via the coast road in order to get Tom's Dakar looked at, it has developed a habit of leaking fuel when fully filled. The ride finished with us climbing the range in darkness, and getting into Mareeba exhausted.
