    I can never get enough of waterfalls! They are so relaxing, whatever their size!

    Another great clip thanks for that. That dirt hill was steep and when they are steep on camera they are steep. Nice day ride enjoyed that one

    Hey Phil! Yeah bugger that Widowmaker hill, got the name for a reason...
    That Waterfall is pretty cool - went up there a few years ago, during Covid - you got to like 100M away from the actual falls and it was closed!! Like that was gonna help...
    Anyway, I snuck in and checked it out anyway :)
    Those fish traps - simple genius, love it!
    Lovely viewing as always mate, Wifey & I both enjoyed 👍

      Hi Sam. Mate, was more impressive than I thought - even with a trickle of water. She should be going good by Sunday! Fish traps were cool. Ancient survival stuff right there. Cheers mate 🍻

    Phil, you give us some great videos mate! You rode past another aboriginal site, Mary's Waterhole (no water) a woman's special place. Also, down Bark Hut Creek rd on the left is Beautizone rd 200m? along and on the right is the site of "Wedding Bells" gold mine not much left there now, but it did lend it's name to the State Forest. Happy travels buddy👍👍

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  3 місяці тому

      Neil, your knowledge blows me away mate! I wondered what the name "Wedding Bells" was in reference too. It's hard to get my head around early aboriginal life in Australia, but the little snippets of history left here and there at least give off some clues to the endless quest for food, shelter and just survival. Enjoy your night mate 👍

    Another nice spot Phil.
    I'm heading up to the border again in a few weeks. This time as much dirt from Barrington Tops to The River Road taking in Knodingbul and Chaelundi Roads. Should be epic.

    Another great video. There used to be a road called Falls Rd that ran towards the top of the Falls that you could drive a 2 wheel drive down, about 30 years ago. I don't know if any trace of it remains.

    • @MidCoastAdventures
      @MidCoastAdventures  3 місяці тому +1

    Greatly enjoy your vids. Your summary of the 300 Rally was interesting especially the lack of power and poor highway performance. Have you considered the Transalp? It’s truly the unicorn of adventure bikes.

    • @MidCoastAdventures

      Thanks mate! Ah yeah, definitely thought about a Transalp. Would be a good addition to the Rally I'd say.

      Yeah, it was trickling Johnny. A good flow would be pretty spectacular! John West smoked salmon- was so good! The app I used that day was OsmAnd. It's free and really good 👍
