Goondiwindi is not a big place, just some 5,000 residents, located on the New South Wales boarder 350-kilometres south-west of Brisbane. It's a gorgeous Friday morning in the town. There's an aura of prosperity about the place renowned for its wheat, cotton, beef and wool.
After an overnight temperature drop to a near zero low townsfolk are outdoors enjoying an ambient warmth heading into the mid twenties. Perfect conditions for the anticipated influx of about a thousand visitors gathering for the start of this year's Cycle Queensland bike ride.
For the next 10 days travel by air in ZK-BAZ has temporally been set aside in favour of cycling 600 km from Goondiwindi to Coolangatta.
