1. 1699K,s - Chelsea, Vic to Yaraman, QLD
2. 1699K,s - 22 hours straight Young and dumb, but made it home for Charismas day with the family. My brother (10 at the time) often jokes about how he asked for a bike for xmas and when he woke up there was this huge motor cycle in the court and for an brief moment he thought all his dreams had come true until he spotted my old bedroom door open)
3. 3656K,s - Melb, Vic to Yaraman, QLD, then to Liverpool, NSW and back to Melb, Vic
The Dubbo and Liverpool trips where to visit family and friends so they happened as many times as I could during the year, lost count on how many of those Iâ€ve done. Slowed down a bit now though, having done a really long run for a while. I find about 10 or 12 hours in the saddle enough for me, gets to hard after that and I start to lose the enjoyment of the ride. If I do a long ride now I drink as much as I comfortably can to avoid dehydration and to have an excuse to have plenty of breaks to go to the loo. Also, big believer in power naps , find a good road stop, stick the ear plugs in and just relax and nap, makes a world of difference.
