In 2009 we picked up the solar car and trailer in Sydney and hauled it to Darwin.  This time Chopper Del Sol was air freighted to Darwin.  We are picking up one of the escort rental cars in Adelaide and driving the race course in reverse “Up the Stewart Highway” joining the MIT team in Darwin.  We are hoping to stop and see a couple things on our way north that last time we drove by a 100 klips an hour.

We arrived Monday Oct 3rd, a holiday for Aussie's.  Our first night in Adelaide was as guests of our friends Peter and Anne Milne, enjoying more fine Australian wine.
