Melbourne to Brisbane

Melbourne - a bustling, cosmopolitan city with loads to see and do. Lygon Street has superb Italian restaurants for an Al Fresco meal and you can tour the city quickly and easily on the trams. Take a walk along the Yarra River, have a coffee or glass of wine at one of the many bars on the way.

The marvellous Great Ocean Road

The Great Ocean Road - Famous as one of the most scenic coastal drives in the world, words can't describe the wonderful scenery on this 280km stretch of road leading to Melbourne. There are stunning ocean views on one side and the Otway Ranges on the other with their temperate rainforest and eucalypts with koalas. It is a superb biking road and one that every motorcyclist should ride at least once in their life!

Point Lookout with stunning views across New England National ParkGrampians National Park - after riding through the Victorian Goldfields with their old fashioned towns, bakeries and coffee shops you'll find yourself in the lovely Grampians National Park. This area of granite highlands is jam packed with wildlife, waterfalls and superb lookouts . On really clear days you can even see the Great Ocean Road 170kms away! You'll have a day here to relax, explore the local area and perhaps take a walk or two through the peacefeul scenery.

Victoria Highlands - continuing from the Snowy Mountains in NSW, Victoria has its own share of beautiful scenery and winding roads.

Snowy Mountains - Huge alpine scenery in Australia? Most people don't realise that Australia has more ski runs than Switzerland! Ride fantastic twisting roads with breathtaking scenery past the towns of the snowflieds.

NSW Southern Coast - superb beaches, great scenery and lovely coastal towns can all be found along this route. Your first night stop is at Batemans Bay

Sydney - The Opera House, Harbour Bridge, Circular Quay, Darling Harbour, ferry boats to Manly... it's one of the most sceneic and interesting cities in the world. A great place to start any tour with so much to see and great public transport - no need to hire the bike while you're here!

Blue Mountains - incredible scenery with huge waterfalls, the second largest canyon on earth, cable car rides and lovely walks. See the Three Sisters, Wentworth Falls and a host of other scenic lokouts before riding a circular route back around the mountains. Stay at a lovely B&B with friendly hosts and incredible views over the Hawkesbury River.

Harley at Hunter VineyardHunter Valley - The heart of Australia's wine production. Ride along a stunning, winding back road past the views and gorges of the Wollemi National Park to the vineyards, restaurants and wineries of the Hunter Valley. The overnight stay is a short taxi ride from the most famous restaurants and wineries of the region. Arrive early and go on a wine tasting tour or save it for a relaxed evening out amongst the vines!

New England - Another incredibly scenic and winding back road takes you through New England to Armidale. Famous for its decidous trees in Autumn and unusually seasonal due to its height it has some of the most scenic roads in Australia nearby. A good choice of restaurants and country town feel mean it's a nice town in which to spend the evening before riding along the Waterfall Way the following day.

Grampians National ParkWaterfall Way - The Waterfall Way is simply breathtaking with dense rainforest, countless waterfalls, huge views over New England National Park and one of the best biking roads in the country down to a lovely country town at the base of the Great Dividing Range . This is where you'll stay the night. It's not a long day on the bike but there's so much to see on the way it takes all day. If you arrive earlier than expected there's the 'Promised Land' circuit to ride which takes you through a beautiful single track country lane past crystal clear streams where you can stop for a refreshing swim on a hot afternoon!

Byron Bay - Yet another spectacular back road winds through northern NSW to Australia's most easterly point at Byron Bay. There are beautiful beaches, a lively and friendly small town and a lovely hinterland. Once a centre for 'alternative lifestylers' it has a unique atmosphere. You can relax on the beach, visit the famous lighthouse and enjoy the atmosphere in town at one of the many good restaurants.

Gold Coast - Australia's most visited holiday destination. Great beaches, all the top theme parks, busy nightlife and a surprisingly beautiful hinterland. If you want it busy you've got it, if you prefer the views then you can have them too!

Brisbane - the bustling capital of Queensland with a great river, great nightlife and beautiful botanical gardens. It's an ideal place to end the trip.
