    Love your relaxing cruisey touring style. I show my wife bits of your videos - she is a bit scared of getting on the back of my dr650 but reckon Im getting her to come around with your "easy going" riding with nothing too snotty for the most part :) Love the road you did today I believe I got "pre approval" for those roads muchly appreciated mate hahahahh. We plan on doing some weekend camping trips once my bikes got its suspension reworked (crikey they are soft in the arse standard)

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  2 года назад +1

      I can't blame her for not overly excited about being doubled- I hate being on the back!...lol But a good way to both share the ride / adventure I guess. Glad you enjoy the videos Daniel, they're fun to do and make. I'll be out camping also once it warms a tad- I hate the cold...lol Cheers mate 👍

      I offered to buy her a bike but shes not interested in getting a licence :( she would rather be on the back apparently hahaha, but makes life a bit harder packing for x2 people for sure, the dr is gunna be real heavy lols. I think thats the difference - once you got a licence you dont want to ride shotgun anymore (im the same)

    The upper Manning valley is really spectacular. I travelled on the train earlier this year and saw country I’ve never seen before. Big hills with contours dug into them next to bigger hills covered in trees. The effort to dig those contours must have been immense.

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  2 года назад +1

    G'day Phil, been watching your videos for quite some time being local to some of these areas. I'm just planning this ride for this week (17 Aug 22). When did you do your ride? It's looking dry and the water level isn't too bad.
    Really love these videos mate, can't wait to explore those areas some more. Hope to see you out there!

    Nice route i didn't know about. Have family in Wingham, but haven't been to Gloucester simce the 80s.
    Temps in the high 30s are common in summer round that area with no wind at all. Not the most pleasantexperience.
    Strange weather, it can look like rain, with a huge black storm blowing in from the ocean and go round in circles all day long without a drop of rain and roll away leaving the place dry as a bone.

    I really enjoyed this. I’m not a bike rider myself but enjoy your wonderings in the bush. My father grew up in Mount George and his father ended up managing one of the mills there and cut timber around there for years. Boserios are a well known family around there. I still enjoy getting up there for a weekend of camping and fishing. Lots of good tracks in the area.

    • @MidCoastAdventures
