I live in Torquay and the Great Ocean Road has lost some of its appeal since the 80kph speed limit. Watch for sneaky police LandCruiser parked on the Torquay side of Lorne, and the black unmarked Falcon sedan which cruises consistently between Lorne and Torquay. After you've left Lorne you can relax a little more. The road inland from Lorne to Dean's Marsh is worth a run, as is the road inland a few k's on the Lorne side of Apollo Bay.
But there's still fun to be had if you're on the road early in the morning, preferably mid-week.
Take care!
