I slept undisturbed until 6 so either I was getting used to the traffic or there wasn't much. It had been a warm night so I knew it was overcast. I got up at 7 and left at 8.30 - perfect timing riding just behind massive rain and lightning getting only a drizzle. In Penong I got 12 liters of water from the friendly gas station owner - a lot to carry but allegedly there would be no water in Nundroo 76k later...
