Cold and wet? not everywhere..
« on: December 06, 2015, 06:09:33 PM »
I usually find a week or so to ride in the cooler mountain air, solo or with mates in early January (our summer) but next year is already looking too busy so I took Friday off and headed south..

top of the range from Bega on the Snowy Mountains Hwy - just 2 nights staying in pub/hotel meant only needed the tank bag and I do like travelling light  :wink:


view from the top


b/w Thredbo and Khancoban


Day 2 found my now second favourite road after being informed it was now sealed all the way - Omeo Hwy:


Mita Mita river headwaters


about all I saw the whole way to Omeo were bikes




after lunch at Omeo on to the Great Alpine Road south back to the coast




Day 3 started at Orbost - and on to my fave: the 'Chubby Checker' road - > 100 kms of deserted mountain twisties  :cool:


on top of the range again it opens to beautiful countryside - still twisting though  :grin:




then it was onto the Monaro hwy - long sweepers built for long legged guzzis and then home up the slab from Canberra to Sydney..    :laugh:

Nice one, Moz. Thanks for sharing.

Here's a snap of my favourite road - from the other end. And it's been too long.
