  • While I was parked up at Birdsville in the RV, I made a run for Poeppel Corner on the KTM 690. This 165km jaunt through the Simpson Desert (plus 165km return) covers a lot of the Simpson's sand dunes including Big Red, and also involves crossing the Eyre Creek. In Part 1 I head off into the desert solo and unsupported on this notoriously unreliable model of motorcycle.

    Nice one Josh, thanks for sharing. Think you'll be pushing it to do it in 10hr, depends on what you can average obviously. Can't wait for ep 2. This looks like a good option for those that dont want to do the whole crossing, It's got me thinking. 😁

      It's a long day riding those dunes mate that's for sure but was pretty easy to get back before dark, not even rushing it. Shhh don't spoil it for the others though haha. Cheers

    What an awesome explore 🙂 I don't blame you getting the hee-bee-jee-bees coming up over the tops of the dunes when there are monster trucks like that big white adv truck coming the other way, that was a beast, proper cool... but would sting if you came over the top into one!
