I hope that is a correct map... it is awesome.
Looks like a great ride Mate !!! A nice loop option but probably a high chance of getting your picture taken by the wrong kind of people ::26::
We did Melbourne to Broken Hill and return for our IBA ride and I am certainly envious of the candle power you have up front.
Consequently I'll be adding the Alt Rider Upper bars soon and hanging some extra lights off them.

Yes Tim, its generated by the SPOT tracker on the handlebars.tomatocity said:
I spent all night 'looking for roos, looking for roos' but only saw 4 live ones in 36 hours. Surprisingly only 1 on the Silver City Highway - that's the kangaroo's tail for those not familiar with the route.
OXcellent!.
I suppose pretty soon you will have to fit some Air Horns to that thing as well. What a beast.

That's excellent! It's one of those things you wonder who dreamt it up or recognized the route.
Thanks for sharing it.

Ahhhh. That would be me.Checkswrecks said:
Three weeks ago I ran a 4200km/3000mile hour shark-shaped ride downunder on my FJR. Thats like a San Diego to Jacksonville IBA 50CC distance, but without riding on Interstate 10.
On that ride I hit a kangaroo just an hour or so into the ride. I taped up the broken plastics, through away the broken fender and rode on. One of my Aussie LD mates made the comment "next you'll be riding the roo".
Last Tuesday I had a couple of hours off work and devised the route:
Wednesday night after work I rode to a town near the start. Pre-dawn Thursday in subzero temps I set off for the 36 hour ride. Nice way to spend a couple of days. ::008::
