Good on you Rob, hope you have many happy miles/kilometres and years together. Be careful on the way home until you get used to the new bike, they have a bit more 'grunt' than your 400.

MacKay to Brisbane  about 970 km according to Mr Google and I guess exactly where in each place. Just a nice ride. Take care and have a great trip.

Reading this thread, I thought "Buy Mackay, buy Mackay!" - then I see you did - well done. I'm sure it will be a happy union.

Well done Rob, I really hope you enjoyed the ride...a bit of a trek for the first time, so all we need now are some pics and a ride report.  :grin

BTW,  I like your idea of a Christmas present from you to you!!

Cheers,
