Hey Baldmtn
I know you yanks think its all desert and swampland over here. But 80% of australians live near the East Coast. And the Eastcoast (if you look on a map) has a 3-4000km mountain range running along it. More Appalachians than Rockys tho. So 80% of all motorcyclists in Oz live within a hundred miles of the mountains (well..hills sometimes).
So theres very little open road riding done, unless you want to.

for some snaps of the roads less than 1/2 hour from my place. And I live in OZs 2nd biggest city.
