Solo unsupported Simpson Desert crossing. 9hours 26min Mt Dare Pub to Birdsville Pub

This video shows some of my Simpson crossing. I didn't stop apart from a fuel transfer and calls of nature. Drank 6lt water. It was very wet and slippery near Dalhousie Springs from yesterday's hail storm. Drz400 was faultless.

Glad you enjoyed it!

You did Simpson in a day???? Absolutely legendary

[@tommygola]

Just amazing Jayne, you're an absolute weapon. I enjoyed how you took care of your bike, short shifting, using the torque not the revs. That's a big ride, massive. Just wow!

[@jaynewhite2450]

Thank you. Looking after the bike is very important in isolate areas especially solo.

Well done Jayne. Great effort. Planning on riding it very soon. Trying to organise some mates to go with. Just bought a new 701 husqvarna lr.

Hi Geoff I was thinking of buying a husky lr to..how have you found it so far?where did ya buy cheers lachy

[@geoffmoulday4418]

@@lachie7630 Gday Lachie. Love my husky LR 701. Best bike I've owned. Great fuel range. Two fuel pumps. No complaints at all. Got mine from Echuca High side. I think they are pretty scarce since they only brought the LR for 1 year.

You are an awesome human..fantastic.. Don't suppose you know a Mr Stuart Ball?

[@jaynewhite2450]

I'm the lead rider for the All women's Simpson crossing. Stuart is the organizer. he did a Solo in about 11hours with a fuel dump a week after me.

[@thebunts8144]

Well done Impressive! Unsupported Solo !! How much fuel did you take for the 400? Looks like about 30+? litres At what I would expect ..about 20+ km per litre did you cut it close?

[@jaynewhite2450]

I carried 40lt fuel . Averaged 16.4km per Lt.

[@NeverMindCedric]

Great job on this achievment! Did you use the Safari 28L tank? What is your experience with it and are there any problems of unuseable fuel in those wings?

[@jaynewhite2450]

Yes I used the 28lt tank. They hold 30lt. To get the last 2lt (bit less) out you have to tip the bike onto the left side so it's over by the tap. Not big problem. I carried 10lt on the back too which was put into the main tank as soon as I could fit it in.

[@NeverMindCedric]

@@jaynewhite2450 Thanks for the information. I will look into it making my way to Australia and the Simpson Desert once the borders open up again. Cheers!

[@kymgross1313]

Amazing effort Jayne, awesome mental and physical toughness . Your average speed must have been approx 57 Km/Hr with short breaks, very impressive. Be interested to know what your moving average speed was ?

[@jaynewhite2450]

I didn't stop much. So about 55kmph. First 350km took exactly 7 hours.

[@kymgross1313]

@@jaynewhite2450 it must have been an emotional euphoric moment for you as you pulled into Birdsville. Congratulations on your massive achievement.

[@jaynewhite2450]

@@kymgross1313 It was quite a cool feeling. Especially when people who were watching the Tracker started phoning me as they saw I had arrived in Birdsville and achieved my goal.

[@soundzrinmygarden3833]

How much fuel did you use out of the 40 litres? Did you have much left?

[@jaynewhite2450]

I am reluctant to disclose my fuel usage. It can vary a lot depending on riding style. Riding very smoothly makes a big difference. I suggest carrying 35-40lt. But a detour would eat up reserves very quickly.
