Freebird Posted February 2, 2010 Share #3 Posted February 2, 2010 That has to be at the top of my "dream trip" list. Someday maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loehring Posted February 3, 2010 Share #5 Posted February 3, 2010 That would be one awesome trip. I don't think the RSV would do well on the dirt and gravel though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted February 5, 2010 Share #6 Posted February 5, 2010 Hey Condor, sorry I missed this post!! Yep, big island with unbelievable riding roads. Just going from one side to the other "across the paddock" is an ad-Venture all by it's self. The Nullabor has a 90 mile stretch of straight road, where all you see is the horizon. Easy to get "white line fever" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yammer Dan Posted February 5, 2010 Share #10 Posted February 5, 2010 I went to the U S Virgin Islands to rebuild after Hugo. First thing I did was get in big old Line Truck and head down RIGHT side of 6 lane road in the middle of town. WRONG!!! Never saw such a mess!!

PBJ Posted February 5, 2010 Share #12 Posted February 5, 2010 Wow Annie you don't know how much a lot of Us would love to come down and visit. the problem is its hard to keep the bikes afloat over so much water?LOL! Whats it cost to rent a bike down there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted February 7, 2010 Share #13 Posted February 7, 2010 Oh funny Ha-Ha There's a winter project.....amphibious motorcycle?? Don't know about rental? When aussies travel to U.S.A. they usually make it for three months and ship their own bikes over. That's what we would do, especially now I can't ride any other bike. A company here called "Get Routed" does all the paperwork, insurance, customs and shipping. And will even organise U.S. insurance for your bike. They ship to Oregan, and if weather good it takes six weeks. Usually goes in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Annie Posted February 8, 2010 Share #15 Posted February 8, 2010 Thanks Condor, I should have done that The guy "calls a spade a spade" on his web site, especially in response to some former clients, or dumb questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squidley Posted February 8, 2010 Share #16 Posted February 8, 2010 That has to be at the top of my "dream trip" list. Someday maybe. My sentiments exactly, I have wanted to go to Austrailia since I was 7 or 8 years old. It's my #1 spot to visit before I leave this planet. I hope that someday Lonna and I can make that happen.

spear Posted February 9, 2010 Share #18 Posted February 9, 2010 Stupid me! I'm looking for the camper trailer. Then I realise it's a film trailer. D'oh! So Annie. When you head to the AGM in Newie - ya riding across the paddock or catchin' the Red Eye Special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted February 10, 2010 Share #19 Posted February 10, 2010 I think it will have to be the red eye for Newie. Will need a bit of time for the leg to be strong enough for the ride across. Would hope to ride to Mildura (AGM after Newie) And enjoy your ride with your brother's and sister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
