Solo trip around Australia

[Dons Ruby]

All set and ready to leave on my solo trip around Australia!

Took me a while to get organised, but looking forward to what's ahead.

First-time motorbike rider at age 74, so will be a learning curve!

Hope to share some of my journey with you here.

I wish you the very best of luck my friend, I was lucky enough to do a long ride with one of your countrymen so I know how tough and crazy you Aussies are. Looking forward to reading about your adventures

I am glad you have the bar behind the seat padded up! I have whacked my tail on that thing and it is hurts.

Crikey … that’s a fair old day out! How much water are you carrying and what distance between fuel availability?

Five days in on my trip around Oz! Cruised down to Sydney from the Gold Coast - 3 nights camping and one night of amazing hospitality from Colin and his wife in Sydney. We met when I bought this bike from him. Such a great community! Followed the coast down to Nowra where I’m camping again tonight. So far, so good.

Windy few days in Victoria. Sheltered in Lakes Entrance for a couple of days and battled the winds down to Foster. Cold and windswept, but travelling on!
