Hey peeps,
For anyone interested we are doing a short (250k) ride this Saturday as Dale will be down from a warmer northern State LOL
Looking at leaving Deloraine around the 10:30 time and heading...
Mole Creek
Oliver's Rd
Sheffield
Latrobe
Frankford Rd
Exeter
Rosevears Tavern
Bridgenorth
Westbury
Deloraine
Stopping when we r thirsty or hungry....
Wet roads and possible showers (and running in new busa) means I ain't going warp speed so all is welcome.

Talked to a guy today who is into Targa Tasmania. He reckons best roads r in Tassie with no police patrols. Is this true Tony?

Probably... I only ever saw two cop cars in Lonnie...think that was their total patrol car capacity...and one of those was a Rav 4...so pursuits were probably only possible if the other vehicle was Kia Cerato...lol. One thing they do have, I believe, is the in car cameras so they can ping you while coming towards you.

It pays to keep a lookout for white box trailers parked on the side of the road for mobile speed cameras,in 7 days travel only spotted 2 cars from memory and three trailers

Tassie is simple.... Thousands of miles of road and very limited budget for policing them. So.....
Keep off the main traffic areas and all you got to worry about is probably a off duty cop taking his marked car the short way home.
Yes they use trailers, but at around $300,000 per unit they keep em on high traffic areas normally catch those doing 60 in a 50 zone.
Not sure how many dead straight roads that could handle the 300+ of the busa we did today... But I was good and kept bike under the 5000RPM for run in.. So my max was 150kph lol

They used to park one of those trailers up on Normanstone Rd Tony...if I'd known they were worth so much I would've hitched it to my Triton and held it ransom...."pay up coppers or the trailer ends up in the river"!
