Well this might sound a little boring, but the road from kinglake to whittlesea and the road from whittlesea to wallan. Nice roads where you can sit on a good steady pace.. :twisted:

Which is why you bought a 14 and got rid of a bike that handled :lol: :lol:
Having just done it again (I hate you NSW barstards) I would have to say the Oxley and yes I have done almost all of the rest too.
You left out Mt Lindsay from Boonah to Woodenbong but... :wink:
Oh and ONL during weekdays... thats all of them I guess :evil:
Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD

The run up from whittlesea to Kinglake west is nice, and is often done a few times. Once as a sighting lap, once as a warm up lap and once as....well you get the drift! :lol:

I like the bit from Kinglake West to Flowerdale too. the bit up over junction hill is awesome. Scary fast, but awesome! :shock: :D

Oh, and Mina!.........................That's the kind of response I expect from a bikeless neanderthal like yourself! Go buy a bike before Rosie dumps ya! She only goes out with him cause riding a bike gives her more opportunities at his life insurance policy! :lol: :lol:

Which is my favourite. It's only about 30-40 minutes away at the speed limit (had ta add that last bit :shock: ). The others are a little too far away.

The best road I've been on was down in Tasmania near Queenstown.

There's a little confusion there, "Omeo Rd/Great Alpine Way". Now which one is it? The Great Alpine Road from Wadonga to Bairnsdale (via Omeo), or the Alpine Way from Khancoben to Berridale?!?!?

My Driveway..

It means 2 things.

1. I'm going out for a ride.
2. I've made it home in 1 piece.


Anything in between has gotta be ok.
