Keith to Horsham

 The stretch from Keith to Horsham across the state border was around 2 hours or about 200km. I had charged for longer than the ABRP app advised at Keith, just to build in a bit of buffer, being a newbie and all that. What I've found is that the more familiar you get with the range of the car, the more willing you are to drain it closer to 0%. The closest I've got so far is only around 20%, so I've got a long way to go! I've read an account of a PS2 driver out of Melbourne who found himself at pretty much 0% in country Victoria and discovered that there was still quite a few km's 'in the tank' so to speak, so that he could get to a power point, and avoid a towing!

It was nice to see the signs at the border welcoming me to Victoria. You notice quite a sudden difference in the roads when crossing the border, which of course is quite arbitrary. And the speed limit drops to 100km/h in Victoria, but interestingly, I think the road quality is slightly better on the Vic side!

The Chargefox charger at Horsham was just off the main road, in an empty (at the time) carpark lot, and near a childcare centre I think.

The parking space where I went was a little tight, but not too bad. The one thing as you can see in the photo, you have to plan whether putting the car nose or tail in, depending on where to plug in the cable. Lucky the cable could stretch far enough to reach the other side of the car. 

The Tesla next to me when I arrived at Horsham had gone by the time I came back from exploring the town (around 45mins to 1 hour). EV charging infrastructure will need to take into account the substantially longer time that cars are sitting at the stations compared to petrol stations.
