Morning tea probably late in Gawler, Lunch Barossa Brewery, Tanunda afternoon tea Angaston back to Nuriootpa supermarket to buy pasta etc for Evening Meal at our Accom’. https://barossatouristpark.com.au/ we have reserved a 6 berth cabin for 4 additional riders @ $40 for the night. The cabin will be base camp for all, those who prefer to bring a tent. Base camp or community Kitchen will provide us with an opportunity to enjoy a group pasta and salad meal and recharge ebike batteries. Only powered tent sites are available, but for three tents on a powered site is $15 each ($45 per site) or ensuite powered site $20 each ($60 per site). Eric intends to tow behind his ebike a “kiddy trailer” so some space for sleeping bags and tents may be available otherwise bikepack or small backpack.
