What route are you planning? Probably not keen for the whole ride but possibly could tag along for a bit. Might be some others keen too...

Goodf to see you posting, Al. Bugger, eh?
To the newbie...that's a very big ride for a beginning biker. Biking takes much more energy than driving. Pace yourself. Stop often. (as the months/years go by, you will not need to do this so much). Company along the way is good.

Pace yourself. Stop often. Company along the way is good.

John, Gidday! Bugger is indeed the word! Yep, had a bit of strife over the last couple of weeks with the bike. Ended up in a HUGE tankslapper on Sunday and am now looking at a few weeks recuperation. Bugger!

Agreed indeed.

This will be a choice ride if the weathers up for it, and even if it isn't........
