FLAT TIRE IN MAREEBA.

We started the day with both trucks following the team, but ater the worst part of the course was finished, truck # 2 took a different route to Mareeba, to get more supplies before heading to Mount Mulligan to set up camp.
On our way to Mareeba we got a flat! Damn! We were already having problems with truck # 1 since day 1. Now this? We still haven’t been able to the first truck fixed!
It took us 30 minutes to find the jack under all the stuff we have in the back of the truck. Thankfully a  father/daughter duo stopped by and helped us get in touch with the truck rental store., so they can bring us a new truck to replace the first one, and a new tire for this one.  It’s Saturday, and tire shops are not open after 12 noon! Thank you Bob and Kathleen for helping us!
We got to the camp just in time to start setting up camp before the riders got there.  
And the tire goes flat...
