  1. Tasmanian Motorcycling Museum

    Tasmania is a pretty neat place to come for a motorcycling tour. There are windy roads, not many people, a whole range of landscapes (mountains, coastlines, highways) - apart from the fact that possums are protected, it's quite a bit like NZ.

Not only a museum, it is also a bike repair shop, and a great place to stop off for a yarn.

    1979 c50, foot clutch, pretty much 49cc of pure awesomeness. 250km over Arthur's Pass in late May should be a breeeeeeze!

    If you're in the wrong island or can't make it to the event in person, ...

    This Blood Run coincides with the 60th BRONZ Blood run, so badges will be for sale ($10). The SMC rubber chicken is also scheduled to make an appearance... who will be awarded the poultry prize this time round???
