Round Australia on the working holiday visa, by bike, now!
I flew into Melbourne a couple of weeks ago, and have bought myself an XR600 which hopefully will be on the road this coming week. Planning to head around Oz over the course of a year, stopping off to work a bit and seeing the cities as well, whilst doing a bit of classic rough camping (or was that tramping?) and seeing some of the outback and bush.
Wondering if anyone else is doing something similar? I saw on the Aus/NZ regional forum there's a few people doing the same in NZ soon. I've also spoke to a guy via the advrider forum who is doing the same in Oz, and he reckons he knows of another guy as well, so may end up catching up with them at some point. Always good to meetup with like minded folk where paths and plans coincide, do a spot of riding, and drink a beer or two.
