Some prefer 4hrs in a motel room with a shower......others a quiet roadside rest area atop a table for 20 mins  :grin


Post your preferred IBA Motel locations here so as to help others researching their LD Riding needs...... locations from a millions stars down to 2 stars  :think1


Here's a classic example in NT, even has off street undercover parking and an alfresco dining area.

Hotels/Motels aren't a place I usually go to for any reason but on our ride to Silverton in 2012 we were surprised to see the Olary Hotel up and running. Even more surprising was the Ulysses sign out the front so a bike friendly place in the middle of nowhere.

This section of  Barrier Hwy is also part of the Sydney to Perth route so anyone heading to a national rally could also use it as a stop over.

That's a 5 Star one, mate.

Might need lat/long to put it into a plan, though.

This little bike friendly pub in Canberra is more my style.  A tip, when the valets tell you how much it is to park the bike securely downstairs tell them you'll pay only if they park it. They'll give you the code for free.  :thumbs


It's also a nice place to drop in for High Tea if you are riding through and feeling a bit peckish.
