Re: In Search of Adventure - The OCR and Beyond

Short 4 minute teaser to whet the appetite. Join ol’ mate and the Three Amigos as they attend the 2026 Off Centre Run (OCR) held at remote Mt Augustus in the West Australian Outback. The plan was to use the OCR as a springboard to go further Outback and explore. That was the plan. The reality was so...

I am stuck here this evening while RAC organise recovery back to Newman and then on to Perth. The others have continued on toward Carawine Gorge and b...

Re: Golden Quest Discovery Trail

Great work. What's your thoughts on the bike? JP I'm pleased with it. The bike is pretty much standard. I bought the bike with 2,000 km on the clock. The previous owner had fitted some protection bars, a wider side stand foot, some fuel tank grips, a 15 tooth front sprocket (for highway speeds) and...

Re: Golden Quest Discovery Trail

By its very nature, Adventure Riding can sometimes be unpredictable, uncomfortable, and no two days are the same. This journey is no different as the group continues on the Golden Quest Discovery Trail and discovers the quirky beauty of Lake Ballard and its surrounds. They visit Gwalia, an abandoned...

Re: Vietnam Tours (South / North)

Nev, I'm curious. The International Drivers (Riders) Licence is not recognized by Vietnam and therefore you take a risk from a Travel Insurance point of view. I know there are two trains of thought out there; that is 1. Fck it, I'll just be really careful and hope nothing goes wrong, and 2. Nah, bug...

Hi Folks, In this Episode, the Finalé, Steve inches slowly toward Tokyo, knowing that victory is only a stone's throw away. Steve continues to book questionable accommodation and focuses his decision-making on price, not quality. In between cloudy skies, he continues to get glimpses of Mt Fuji, as h...

Re: New Year's Resolution

Hello Slackers, n this episode, Steve comes to terms with his age and realizes that maybe cycling is best left to the young. Regardless, he pushes on because failure is not an option. He regains his composure, soldiers on, and continues on looking forward to resting up in Fuji in an attempt to recov...
