Hi All,

I'm planning a tour/ride for next winter (2010) for myself leaving from Sydney north along the coast up as far as Cairns, down across and back up to Kakudu / Darwin, down the WA coast through Karijini NP, across to Ningaloo Reef/Coral Bay and follow the coast south back through Perth.

I'll be shipping the bike across to Sydney (I've done the Nullabour too many times previously) & starting from there. Guessing on 7 to 8 weeks for the full trip taking it easy and seeing the country (approx 8,000 kms) but would like some company for at least some of the way if anyone is interested. Please let me know.

I've posted a preliminary route map ( http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album ... 1808146129 ) but would love to hear from anyone having knowledge of the route of any interesting places, roads for the trip, etc.

I have an R1150R which is based on the GS so can do dirt but is really best on roads.

Love to hear any comments, suggestions - all welcome.

First hurdle over - leave approved June & July 2010.

Woohoo ..................

Hi Graham

I might like to join in the adventure in WA somewhere and ride back southwards with you.
Please can you keep me posted either on here or via nick@creativepage.com.au

thanks

Nick

Hi Nick,

Nick, Patrick,
PM me if you are still interested.


50 days to go...........

Hi Everyone,

I've had a lot of family, friends and forums asking me to keep updating everyone about the trip as I go but when I started looking into it I decided it would be an absolute pain in the butt to update them all so I made an executive decision.

I've started a blog for the trip. That way those who are interested can follow along.

There is a button on the page that allows you to "Follow" automatically.

Conversely, if anyone knows how to make the blog print to this thread each time I could do that instead.

I leave on the 29th so, if I don't see you guys beforehand, look after each other and play nicely....
