As per the title I'll be jumping the ditch late August for a few days and am keen to use the opportunity to catch a few sights. Never paid Ausi much attention, well why would I , so know bigger all about what's worth a look. Conference is 28-30 August and am thinking about hanging around until at least the 2nd Sep (Sunday) but maybe longer if I can be tempted. Obviously starting out of Brisbane, and would prefer to go bush but I hear that it is a big lump of rock so probably not going to get far in 1.5 days. Keen to rack up some decent kms i.e. 800-1000km a day, especially if lots of black stuff or good gravel. Advise on what to see (note I didn't say where to go!) and where to hire a bike appreciated. Cheers R
we've posted a few good one and two day adventure rides here based out of bris. for blacktop i reckon you'd be looking at rides to mt glorious, maleny, mt tamborine/beechmont/springbrook etc. a few are listed here.
Good stuff. These sorts of sites and the guys and girls that populate them are awesome. I had a nudge at one a few years back for here in NZ. Thanks for the info. Cheers R
grizzlybear owns a bike rental place in Noosa if that's any help. DR 650's etc from memory. I think the place is www.aussiebiker.com.au
That would be enough to scare anybody off. Lion too. Thanks for the link Trustme. DRZ400 would do the trick. Hope to travel light i.e. KTM 450EXC style if I can.
Nah just joking mate plenty of good chance's to ride if you organise it right but hope you said goodbye because you may not want go home
yeah,definately better riding temps over there this time of year some good riding around northern rivers NSW and not to far from Brizzy
