  • This week, I set out on my Royal Enfield Himalayan motorcycle for a ride through Tasmania’s stunning Central Highlands. The main goal was to explore a road suggested by my son, but there were plenty of other highlights along the way.
    First up was a detour to the expansive Lake Echo, where the water stretched out against a rugged backdrop. From there, I rode to the locked gate of a windfarm … no access, but it added a bit of intrigue to the journey.
    Further down the track, I came across the site where the collapsed Ouse River Bridge on Bashan Road had been removed. Word has it that a new bridge is under consideration.
    Next was a visit to the town of Shannon, a peaceful little spot but I couldn’t find a thru-road.
    Finally, I explored the breathtaking road recommended by my son, where the unique landscape capped off another memorable ride in Tasmania.

      It really was a top day out (if not a bit long). I reckon I'll run out of time before I run out of fantastic roads to explore.😆

    Oh, yeah, I remember those gates now! Sorry for the stich up!🤣
    If you hung a right at the 9.47m mark it takes you to an old hydro site... but probably some gates there too!
