Especially if you can squeeze in a couple of multi-day trips beforehand. I'm only suggesting it as others who have done big trips have suggested this as a way to warm up for the actual event.
Mel is as warmed up for long trips as it gets ;)
I figured, but nothing like stating th obvious "in case".

MRAA fund raiser to follow girls aust wide too and publicise progress as well as KSRC site...........TAC vic RTA perth, Sydney and who ever other states and territories have as their road trauma insurance bodies, minor imput perhaps fuel expenses...but massive exposure if on board

yes i have been drinking but i think there are huge possibilities for these 2 GIRLS with 2 KAWASAKIS if the word spreads
Forget about Kawasaki Australia they can't even afford to have bike displays at the supers hell they can't even afford a race team.

I would seriously contact the mags AMCN or Two wheels and see if you could get them to purcahse a storey or a group of stories.
Hit them up for some gear to test for them. If you can get the mags interested then contact MOnza Imports or similar to see if they can supply some riding gear. Who knows they may be interested. Your story has to be better than the shit that Boris sprays across the page.

I was also going to suggest Two Wheels - they may even be interested in a series of columns as you travel around, if you feel the literary urge, otherwise they can probably at least do a blurb about your trip in the mag.
