Looks like I'm off to Australia at the end of the month for a weeks work. I'm considering extending the trip by a week, hiring a bike and riding up to Cairns to see my nephew before flying back to Sydney. It looks like 2600km via the coast route.
Questions then -
1. Has anyone done this exact trip and is it a good ride - i.e. interesting twistie roads? Is the coast route better than the inland route?
2. My preference would be an R1150GS purely because I know the model well - I've mailed one hire company in Sydney but any other recommendations would be great
3. Any recommendations of places to visit or places to stay would be appreciated
I think that covers it. Ta
