firstly a quick gday
names linz and touring qld where im based at the moment. i love getting to those faraway places and a way from the rat race.. so much of australia to see!! i ride a honda hornet 250 with a few mods been up to bowen and back before which ill post up
cheers glitch for the invite this site looks awesome.
bloody brilliant 2 weeks off work i had recently spent a week out west qld at carnarvon gorge.
beautiful part of austalia
went at the best time of the year beat the crowds... still a bit warm though
spent the first day travelling form the gold coast to miles my halfway point.. where i shacked up at the windsor hotel and drank beer all afternoon.. hard life ive got....
394.54 kms 5:25 Hours (apparently)
lost my 10lt fuel tank,, due to me placing it 2cms off my exhaust.. top marks for that... a burning smell in the middle of nowhere normally means its you... durrrrrrh
top hospitality at the pub scored a free breaky in the morning and hit the road for carnarvon.
ive noticed on me trips out west.. people start waving (in cars) to you on the road... i was a bit taken aback at first.... but yeah funny ay? lol imagine everyone waving at you in the city ???? i dont think so ..
not much to see... mp3 player a must to beat the boredom.
sevendust rocks
no petrol from injune to carnarvon hence the 10l fuel tank... i could get in but not out haha....
384.33 kms 4:57 Hours
to carnarvon. last 20kms is pure gravel weetbix in consistency...
cows all over the road fantastic country though a few nice twisties on the way north through injune. lots of roos... mainly mooshed into the tarmac.
first time this city slickers seen a emu in the wild....
spent two days out there... first day climbed the bluff 7kms return.. best view ever.. get in early beat the heat..
next day did a 25kms bushwalk.. im a sucker for punishment
spent the rest of the day drinking whisky in the sun.....what a life...
my favourite photo.. at the end of the beaten track.. big bend
next day rode from carnarvon gorge all the way back to the gold coast
( did i say i was a sucker for punishment?? )
780 kms and about 12 hrs later.... very saddlesore...... very tired
got caught in a rain storm at toowoomba and was soaked through from there.... theres nothing worse than a tinted visor, no vision at all, a crap song playing through your mp3 and wet jocks in a rainstorm
fun trip..... cant wait for my next.... 10/10
(i need to get some panniers)
