Tassie Tour
« on: January 12, 2018, 09:05:18 AM »
We excitedly sailed across Bass Strait on Tuesday night with the OzStoc shop in tow.  :hatwave The crossing was a little bumpy but docking in Devonport on Wednesday morning we were greeted with sunshine and clear blue skies. We disembarked and headed for our first stop catching up with a tall, red headed fellow ST rider were we chatted all morning. After setting up Peter unloaded the bike we were off for a ride through Deloraine lead by our tour guide.   :13Candy :runyay
After a very pleasant evening plans were made for a ride the following day and we had had a fantastic start to our Tassie adventures  ++

This place is motorcycle Mecca. Peter and I are absolutely loving the chance to ride some of Tassies awesome roads. From our base in Westbury we’ve done a number of different loops crisscrossing the Meander Valley and Tamar Valley.

We have had a huge weekend of bike riding.  We met Streak in Launceston on Friday afternoon.  Saturday morning we made a relatively early start with Diesel, Streak and a few local riders and did a 300 km ride through  Central Highlands, Sheffield, Beaconsfield, Exeter and returning to Westbury. 

Sunday morning it was on the road again into Launceston to meet up with some locals who led a wonderful ride to Scottsdale then through Weldborough Pass to St Helens and then to Falmouth right on the coastline for lunch. It was great to see some familiar faces and make some new friendships. It was then back on the bikes through Elephant Pass and back to Westbury. All up around 400kms for the day.
We have been in Tasmania for 12 nights and have done 1500kms on the bike over great twisty roads and through spectacular countryside. Loving it.
