Well, all of the hard work has paid off and tomorrow the team’s off!
The Mackay contingent of Team Ethanol flies out tomorrow morning at sparrow fart (for our international followers that’s Australian for “very early”), bound for Darwin and the great, north-south cross country odyssey.
The next few days leading up to the event start on Sunday will be quite hectic. We have to pick up the event car, support vehicles and the fuel, attach the car signage, register the team, attend displays and briefings, give media interviews, stuff promotional giveaway bags, lay in some essential food supplies (both solid and liquid), pick up the other team members as they arrive and attend a reception at Parliament House. Whew, I’m getting tired just thinking about all that!
So now it’s sort out the last details, finish packing and have an early night, with just one thing left to do…give a huge thank you to all of our wonderful sponsors and supporters…without you Team Ethanol would have run out of fuel long ago!

Bon Voyage! Good luck to all the teams participating in The World Solar Challenge for a safe journey! Naturally, I'll be "roo"ting for Team Ethanol. No more kanagroo hits though.... unless, of course, you are hungry and don't have to venture too far off the road to get one.
I'll be monitoring your progress from Glasgow, Scotland!
Good Luck! Trish Bischoff
Best of luck Ross, Graham and the team! We'll be with you in spirit (CH3CH2OH)
