Well time is closing in a my next adventure. Will spend a few weeks riding down the east coast of Australia trying to catch as much dirt as I can. I've spent a lot of time gathering info and gps files. I have put together a master file of day rides and off shoots. Will be asking locals for more as I travel. Have planned about 2500km one way at this stage with about the same return. The bike is ready and waiting will travel pretty light to keep offroad riding easier. Covering dirt from Brisbane, Glenn Innes, Kandos. Wee jasper, Jindabyne, Barry way and west to my old stomping ground. Around Buller would like to spend a night on Mt Stirling. Well that's the plan and I can be flexible.

   G'day Richard, sounds like a great adventure mate. When are you planning to be in the Wee Jasper / Jindy area? May be able to catch up with you while you're down this way.
   I'm heading to the Vic High Country on Thursday  this week. Will be up there for six days of mountain riding. Can't wait! As soon as I get back I'll be re-fitting the knobbys to the TDM and will be keen for some dirt riding.
                                                                                        Regards, Pete. :drinks:
