TOURISTS Skate Park Itinerary Pulls Visitors to Bre
Paramedic Lindsay Mackay had to quarantine for two weeks during the height of COVID and because of her ’ high risk ’ job , her husband had to join her . During the fifteen years they have been together , Greg Shaw had never shown himself to be much of a handyman , and yet , being a keen skateboarder , he decided to build a ramp in his garden ; a ramp that actually turned out to be quite impressive . Just a bit more COVID creativity . :)
Greg and Lindsay had planned a holiday in Western Australia but when the borders closed , they decided on a skateboarding trip around New South Wales , since Greg was keen to master a couple of new tricks before his fortieth birthday . A quick visit to the Skateboarding Australia website had them draw up an itinerary which included NSW towns such as Port Maquarie , Armidale , Cobar and our very own Brewarrina .
I ’ m glad you enjoyed your trip here , guys . It was lovely to meet you both . :)
