    Just a thought....

    Stick with the bike... and ride up the NSW coast... there is a lot more to see and do.. also gas and communication arent going to be a problem..

    When you get to QLD just keep going...
    The sunshine coast is great to visit
    Heaps of bikini clad chickies...
    go up to Frazer Island and have a look..
    You will love it down the Gold Coast.... lots to do...
    Can still get up to Townsville or cairns if you wish to keep going.
    Townsville is about 1500 ks from here.

    The drive to the Alice may be a bit boring....
    FA to see... And when you get there..
    Its just a big red rock sticking out of the ground.....

    As i said... just a thought........................

    Mmmm. Think I'll stay tuned to this channel. Many achieve true legend status posthumously.

    Found I needed to re-calibrate map reading part of brain for ockerland. Looked at map and thought let's take drive up there today - uh oops, thats 3,500 km. You fly over the place and it stays in the window for hours and hours. Australia is BIG.

    Buggered if I know which Alice you went to?

    A 'motorcyclist' could use up a week around there and still have missed most of the great rides and scenery
    I'm no gynaecologist, however I would be happy to take a look......................

    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    and not a bad one, the thing with doing the loop is that there is no room for error due to the fact the rental will be way outside its zone

    I should be cool, I cant belive the car with unlimited KMS is cheaper than a GN by a fair bit.
    I can sleep in the car
    Store more stuff
    Have a greater fuel range.

    I will bust out the cameras for the car bits

    Oh, yesterday, i had nothing booked or prepared, i had visions of landing at sydney airport and sleeping in a locker
