Just up the bruxner range towards Tenterfield there's a back road thru all old mining camps called herrigans lane.. brings you out near liston nsw 20 mins from stanthorpe.. I strongly suggest you give that ride a go it's beautiful long plenty of twisty rangey dirt road and a great amount of roads coming off the main road to explore..in the middle of a range too

I don't think you are going fast enough in the bush, any speed on those tracks under 120kmphr, is not fast enough. When you get out on the hwy, make sure you get upto 140kmphr, other wise, your just wasting time.
