Due to the nature of traveling in remote Australia, we may need to adjust the planned itinerary en route. Several stopover days are included where we explore an area, this gives us flexibility to adjust as needed, plus it gives riders time to relax after what are sometimes big days. This also gives the group (i.e. you the riders), the ability to make decisions to adjust.

Day 1 Race Tracks & Telescopes

We leave Sydney and cross the Great Dividing Range, passing through country towns and twisty roads before visiting the Mt Panorama Race Track for a lap of the track and Lunch in Bathurst. Then we take the back roads to the town of Parkes for the night, famous for its part in receiving signals of the first Moon Landing in 1969.

Day 2 Ivanhoe

We travel along the longest river in NSW with a mixture of good sealed roads and dirt roads to start and get you used to riding on the unsealed roads of the Outback. This part of the country is the bread basket of Australia, characterised predominantly by farming

Day 3 Birds & Mining

We visit Menindee Lakes, a series of 9 shallow lakes that are bird watchers' paradise, before heading to the historic silver mining town of Broken Hill where we will spend a couple of nights, we are starting to get more dirt under our tyres now.

Day 4 Mad Max II

Free day today to explore Broken Hill and the surrounds, try heading out to Silverton which was the filming location of Mad Max 2.

We spend a second night at Coober Pedy and head out to the rock formations that are called the Breakaways. This is where the movie Pitch Black was filmed with Vin Diesel, there are still a lot of the old Movie props hanging around Coober Pedy. If you're not up for that, have a wander around Coober Pedy and try your hand at finding an Opal in some of the Mullock Hills

Day 10 Painted Desert

We head to the town of Oodnadatta via the Painted Desert, the landscape here is classic badlands country for those that have previously been to Dakota in the U.S. Oodadatta once claimed to be the hottest town in the world with a summer temperature over over 51c recorded one year.

Day 26 & 27 Opals Mining (Take 2)

We head over to our second Opal Mining town, White Cliffs, where they also live underground.
