Hi,

Arthur here,

Coming to the UK in May, and heading off to Europe for a bit of a tour. Anyone interested in catching up. Gonna ship my 09 Tuono over and back ... seems cheaper than renting.

Cheers

Let you know when I've sorted it out. But I have 2 weeks by myself, and I'm thinking south of France, Spain, Poortugal.
Then 2 weeks with some other blokes who want to go to Romania and back.

The perception is that Aus is one wide brown flat land with straight roads. There are a lot like that but it's a big country. The East Coast has some great roads.Big_Hill_from_the_air_01.jpggreat_alpine_road,0.jpgimages.jpg

Tassie

We didn't produce Casey Stoner or Mick Doohan on straight roads.


In Tasmania the police seem to turn a blind eye, as they need as many tourist dollars as possible. The ferry from Melbourne is packed with mad motorcyclists heading over to 'motorcycle heaven'.

So some of you blokes should try and make it over here. :cheers

Dman,
Congratulations on your choice of T i have exactly the same one, the roads you have mentioned are some great biking roads. Did that oxley highway but had to stop at that gingers creek cafe for a rest. Mount Hotham and Falls creek reasonably close together are great. Your spot on about Tassie i have just come back with the wife from a holiday but unfortunatly was in a rent a car. Thinking about going back in 2013 and tying it in with WSBK. Hard to find a straight bit of road. You have covered a fair bit of tarmac from Tassie to Queensalnd. Good luck on your trip to Europe.
 
Thanks Buddy! I have done a lot of roads from Qld to Tassie, thats true. Now looking forward to Europe!
