I did the return trip from my home on the NSW Central Coast to Tasmania and back in 20 days and covered a distance of 4300 km.

After riding for a few days down the Hume Hwy on my way to Melbourne,the twisty roads of Tassie where a very welcome change and the scenery was almost just as good!:thumbup1:

After docking in Devonport in the morning at 6.00 am and disembarking by 6.30am I started to make my way through the north coast of Tasmania.
Riding through the beatiful costal towns of Ulverstone, Penguin, Burnie and Wynyard to finally reach Stanley were I spent my first night under a Tasmanian sky.

Stanley is an old historic fishing town with a lot of charm. The main road in town is full of 19th century buildings that really take you back to what it would have been like when early settlers first came to this island.

A visit to the local cementery really brings it home when you see all the headstones with lots of children and young people dying from dease and accidents.

But the thing you can not miss is the main attraction of the town, and that is "The Nut". The Nut is this huge rock outcrop that is visible for miles around and the best way to discribe is like this....It's Uluru by the sea.

It's got it's own chair lift that takes you to the summit and it is a must if you're in town I reckon.
