Back in September the bike club stayed at a place called Koorda about 300ks northeast of Perth. And that night our side of the planet was pointed directly at Galactic centre.....

OMFG!!!!! The river of light that spanned the sky that night was beyond belief. I have never seen a more stunning sight.
