    You will have a ball!

    If you are coming back along GOR travel the whole way along the coast. I just did it and it was a great ride.

    I wish I had done the Great Alpine Road too but came home to Perth via Broken Hill. Might be worth a consideration for the trip down.

    cheers

    Ed make sure you send up a reminder for the SYD bits nearer the date or send me a text.

    Would be keen to get a few boys together and say ride down to Berry (or back from) as a bit of a send off!?
