How
This will be my seventhyear of doing this tour and each year just gets better and better! Riding from Caloundra QLD to all of these events, or meet up along the way for part of the trip. I plan to stay in Hotel/Motel and only swag it as a very last resort (like when I run out of money). This year's trip will include large sections of the G.O.A.T so a 50/50 tyre would be recommended. Some days will be 800 kilometres long so be prepared for a bit of a test in the heat.

Why
If you are feeling sad and ugly, buy yourself a motorcycle and join with me on this ride. Then you will just be ugly! Seriously there is not much better than riding a motorcycle to watch a motorcycle race! So come on join me! Just remember no one can hear you scream on your motorcycle... it is good therapy!

This trip will be a grand total of 6,500 kilometres, and includes plenty of dirt including a large majority of the G.O.A.T as well as some extreme temperatures out Birdsville way, last year my phone stopped working when it reach 46 degrees... so it must have went higher than that! The longest section without fuel is just under 400k's. If you are wondering what sort of bike can handle this trip, I did it last year on an Aprilia Caponord 1200. It was rough going in places but man it was a great trip!
