Shiney's Tassie Tour #3
« on: December 22, 2019, 07:31:11 AM »
This video is part three of my Tasmania tour.
 
Specifically covering the First couple of days in Tassie.

 The tour covers my ride from Queensland to Tasmania and back along with attending the 2019 OzSTOC National Rally and the places we visited in Tassie.

Another great video.  Enjoyed it.  I can tell you the road to Arthur River is sealed and is sealed all the way back to Smithton.  It does a big loop called the Tarkine Drive and it was an awesome ride.

I probably should have stayed a night in Launceston too and had a walk around town.  Alas I didn't although I did ride through on three occasions and get lost on all of them.

My most expensive accommodation was at Goodwood on the outskirts of Hobart and the friday rate was higher than the the previous three nights.

I stopped at the bridge in Ross too, but din't know it was the third oldest in the country.

Looking forward to the next video.

I can confirm that, I did the loop a coupla years back.... :thumb

You missed out on seeing "The Edge of the World" just out of Arthur River, Shiney...

I'm sure we all have those.  I kick myself for not doing the Jacobs Ladder in the Ben Lomond Ranges.  Tassie hurts more because you can't just ride over.
