A collection of 64 rides that took place between 2006 and 2013. I have upscaled the old images from what was stored on Blogger but otherwise preserved the older camera nuances (and my poor writing) just for nostalgia. Please refer to my Good Motorcycle Roads Australia map for locations.
Turning Point
Nice to see some sunshine. Lovely autumn day. I believe this might be only the 2nd ride (in Australia) I have done this year. That is mostly due to the weather. I have however covered considerable distance in other countries. Some I have already posted and one tour I am […]

Go your own way
I think that was a motorcycle slogan once. I know I have said it before in this blog somewhere but today the thought came to me anew not recycled from the past. I was riding my old favourite loop into NSW via Mt Lindsey, Summerland way, Kyogle, Uki, Numinbah and […]





Ravensbourne
When I started riding I had a small bike and riding it anywhere was a joy. Every ride was a wonderful experience without any need for speed. I used to always ride then with other guys and thus at some point things became competitive and my focus shifted to riding […]

North of the border
For a change I decided to do a smaller ride sticking to the roads in the Gold Coast hinterland which I have not been visiting much lately. Dawn over the saw tooth skyline of the Gold Coast Today was the first proper Winter ride and I noticed more than a […]

A tale of two rides
My last two rides have been opposite temperatures. A couple of weeks ago it was hot and humid inside my helmet on a Sunday that was the last hurrah of warm weather. Today I reluctantly allowed a chilly dry air to demist the visor and closed all other vents as […]






In the groove
Wasn’t the best of weeks for me so a good ride was needed. I decided to do the tried and proven loop to Kyogle riding down via Mt Lindsey and the Summerland Way and returning via UKi and Currumbin valley. There are two perfect radius corners near the Mt Lindsey […]



Gympie ride
Today I was determined to make up for last Sunday when I had planned to ride before drinking too much the night before. And so I headed north to Gympie.The forecast was for occasional showers in the Sunshine Coast district however one look this morning and I made up my […]

Clear Mountain
Weather improved today so I decided to do a small ride after lunch. After a slow traffic light crawl out of the city I rode via Bunya Road and Clear Mountain Road which were mostly free of cars. The clouds looked rather dark and heavy and I was wondering if […]

Go your own way
Yesterday was a beautiful winters day with no clouds and a mild temperature so I rose early today hopeful of the same however it’s gray. Never mind I am awake now so off for a small ride. Riding south I turned off and went to Mt Tamborine via Logan village. […]
