Duncan Road, formerly known as the Duncan Highway, is a 430km remote Outback road zigzagging through the lands of the traditional custodians, the Miriwoong, Kija, Gurindji, and Jaru people in the East Kimberley and Northern Territory.The Duncan was built in the 1960s to service the growing cattle industry which continues to this day. It starts in the north at the Victorian Highway and ends in Halls Creek in the south, rising onto the plateau.  If you look at a map, countless rivers and creeks intersect the Duncan on their way to Lake Argyle, most notably the Behn, Negri, and Ord Rivers.Cycling the Duncan was a wild idea that had started with talk of meandering along the popular, neighbouring Gibb River Road.  A chance conversation led us to Duncan Road, with claims of a more stunning, less travelled route. One where we could skirt the annual grey nomad migration. A few texts later and with little convincing, Jude and Jaye were in.
