Never argue with an idiot. He'll drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

If your bike is roadworthy and you ride the pace I don't see the problem.

Heading down Monday, hopefully with new Staintune pipe :D . Started talking to a SES bloke at the servo, and he said the same thing. Anglesea to Lorne, especially. The best part's later, anyway. Isn't the 80k bit just to Apollo Bay, or have they buggered that bit too? :x

It's 80 from Aireys inlet to Appollo Bay :cry:
Lots of 60 spots too, which will have to be obeyed instead of the usual ignored :twisted:
Back way from Colac or Winchelsea is best option this w'end and the road has better twisties anyhoo :kuda:

the only good news on weekends like this is........if they are *concentrating* in numbers on one stretch..........then that means they will *not* be concentrating on heaps of other places !!!

I don't suppose there's any chance they'll pay any attention to tourists doing 40 in an 80 zone as they crawl past the "consider those following" and "slow vehicle turnout" signs? Silly me, they'll target those areas... to pick up the motorcycles overtaking.

I agree, but these kind of posts can make us look like a bunch of hoon - ya know, the type who'd pop monos on twisty gravel covered roads :twisted:

I think it is a great reason to go to the GOR and do a ride. A lot of it is very fun even at the speed limit.
