Going to my own funeral

Travel Grit: What was the first day of your Long Ride across Australia like?
Gin Szagola: It felt like I was going to my own funeral, if I’m going to be completely honest. I set off with the realization that this could be it, you know, everything could go tits up. It could be a complete dumpster fire. My horse could kill me. He could kill himself. It could just be a complete disaster.
