Going South
« on: October 18, 2011, 05:17:04 PM »
Need some help fellow STeeders.
Intend leaving the Sunny state and going to Adelaide next month.
Rellie stops in Coffs and Greta then south along the coast.
Taking the trailer and the pillion for a run.
Need some advice on good pubs to stay at.
Tired of paying big bucks for motel beds when pub accom is just as good.
Will be leaving Greta on Sat 5 Nov and heading south (perhaps to the home of Starcom for an updated version)
Madam is happy to do the pub thing, she drinks I don't.
Trip home will be the test. Leaving Adelaide on Nov 14 and have to be at Imbil on November 16/17.
Madam is flying home so I feel an Ironbutt coming on.
So where do we stay on the trip down?

I have always found pub rooms good, the only drama is putting the bike somewhere, if i cant put the bike away then it is no go for me.

most pubs especially outback ones will lock it up in the beer garden for you

Yep, caravan parks did appear on the mental horizon but cabins ain't cheap. Will have the camping gear in the trailer but......... pillion wishes, she's got the purse.
So the route is the pacific hwy - any pub suggestions.

obviously the poeple who own ST's don't stop at pubs except for lunch. then they could just be shy. Thought at least one or two suggestions would appear. ah well, leaving tomorrow so it's too late.
