Canberra to Woomera via Broken Hill in a day. A very f*&^ing long ride - around 1800kays -on my GSXR11, that was a pain in the arse, wrists, arms, knees were rooted, but top end speeds once I got into South Aussie, sat on 220s to 250s, got booked 5 kays out of Woomera for 129 in a 110. Very lucky, great ride, never again!Pi_freak

i did brisbane to just south of west wyolong in 1 day. 2am start and 10pm finish. how many km's? maybe 1200, but finished the trip to melb the next day. then rode home 3 days later. total trip of 5500km's in a week
just take plenty of stops to stretch and stretch whilst riding too... and keep eating and drinking all day.
my butt was fine but the wrist became a bit sore.
cheers

The old GSXR11 ('96) was a rocket, a very potent weapon, until I rode the Hayabusa - that made the GSXR11 feel like a slow 500.Biker

I thought this threat was about looong trips. Bris to Mackay is only a short one. I used to live in Bris & work in Mackay. Drove Mackay to Bris every Friday evening & back again every Sunday evening. Did that for about a year.

Phillip Island to the central coast was about it for me. about 1000k.

but sore arse for a couple of days after.

why not break the ride and enjoy the journey. Sometimes it's the journey and not the destination.

You're most welcome to camp on floor at my place in Tallangatta Thursday night if you want. (Or I'll give you a motel room at cost)

We'll be leaving for Jindy about 10am Friday Morning.

i'll be in touch with you soon , thats what i originally thought of doing
by the way you have a pm

roll on jindyBiker

Yep but to get to airliee you need to add another 700 or so kms.

You could not hand me a job that pays well enough for me to bother travelling that far each week. As it is I struggle to travel the 300meters walk from home to work.

Nyce 2 cee sum uthers orlso doo sum long rydes. Ive dun Melborn to Sidnee and bak a cupl of tyms , each way in 1 day. Have also dun the Sidnee - Brizben run in a day as well. Generally dont take the main roads, lots of back roads and lots of speeds as well. Cant rate the hydration pack good enuf, completly esenshal. I find the highways make me more tired than back roads coz its just strait, strait, strait, but taking back roads adds to the kms.
