Has anyone ridden the road into to 80 mile beach recently ? Planning a trip up that way July 17 , last time stayed at Pardoo Roadhouse . Not great . Is the road suitable for big tourer ?Experienced bitumen rider , not a huge experience on dirt roads. Ridden on gravel roads when needed 

You wont find much tar sealed at all up that way, are you going via the Anna Plains ? Dirt 4wd road.                   

Doing the bitumen as close to the coast as possible . I rode up that way last year on a loop of Oz counter clockwise .All bitumen Roads .. Doing a smaller loop clockwise this time Vic/sa/wa/nt/sa / vic . I found the bitumen roads in the NorthWest Wa and the NT very good. It is the road from the Great Northen Highway to the Eighty Mile Beach CP that I am inquiring about . IT looks/reads as a gravel road but that could be nice graded gravel to one with heaps of ridges and gravel rises and pushes on the track . 

It would be dirt all the way to the CP/village, unsure of it condition but would not advise as road bike route. Good luck with your trip.

Cheers . Might have to give it a miss and Stick to the bitumen . 

Do it mate, have a crack, report back.

I know of 1 Harley that went across the Gun Barrel highway, Eighty mile beach will be a walk in the park compared.

Not sure if I am that game !
