Coast highway has a good margin but too many cars. Some assholes screamed at us while passing. North Rockingham has ugl chemical complexes that cut the beach. After a rest in park, rode slowly to "downtown"and ate nachos and salad at Promenade restaurant. Waited until 18h00 and then went to Rocking ham Hotel/Backpackers. It is an old hotel being restored by one guy as a backpackers. Nice big room with shower. Faucet needs to be fixed. Bar en face made a lot of noise until 23h30. Stayed in and read energy newsletters and Ch. read magazines.
