A Sad Postscript


My friend Peter Gordon passed away February 18, 2020. He had been diagnosed with advanced cancer, and chose to have only palliative care. We met four times: at the beginning and end of my 2004-5 trip, and at the ends of my trips in 2015 and 2018. Peter had done a lot of bike touring in Australia, and provided a wealth of information. He also put me up in Brisbane each time, shuttled me to and from the airport, stored my gear, and in one case shipped it to me in Alice Springs. We also did some travel by car to parts of Australia I would never have seen by bike. He was a great friend, and I'll always remember the great times we had together.
