The last thing I expected was an eagle ... at first I thought it was a turbo chook! 😂 I see the point of gates to protect the punters ... but the two I encountered seemed to serve no purpose ... Take care 🏍

Thanks for watching and the comment Stephen. Your almost namesake road is well worth a visit mate … my video doesn’t capture the essence of the place. I was very impressed and will be going again for a more relaxed look around. 👀👍
Thanks man. I'm glad you liked it. Stay upright. 👍

Nice capture of that eagle Mike. Thanks for mentioning RtB and I do like the sticker placement on the Bark Busters.👌 You are right about those action cameras. Would you get a big GS around those gates? 😁
@WednesdayRideTasmania9 күн бұрын
Thanks for watching mate. David Attenborough on a bike! 😁😂😆🤣 I wish the light had been better😟 With a bit of help, I'm sure a big GS would get around both gates. The first (unseen) one was the trickiest as a stuff-up would send you down the embankment. Mentioning RtB is my pleasure.

I recognise the track around the 7:30 minute mark, a couple of months ago a friend and I came across the same trees across the track.😩 I got to love the RtB Ride Left stickers on the Bark Buster. You had a good day for it.👌 Darrel RtB
