moderateMotorcycle Control: A Guide to Replacing Handlebar Grips for Adventure Touring
🇦🇺 Australia
Okay, buckle up for the Dolgoch to Tywyn road in Wales! It’s a short but sweet 4.2km (2.6 miles) rollercoaster that climbs from near sea level to around 200m (656 feet). What makes this route memorable? Think super-narrow, winding lanes, bordered by stone walls and tall hedges. Visibility can be limited, so keep your wits about you! It's a favorite for cyclists, so be prepared to share the road. The scenery? Classic Welsh countryside – rolling green hills and charming little farms. This isn't a road to rush. Take your time, soak in the views, and enjoy a proper dose of rural Wales.
moderateIs Trig Track Walhalla unpaved?
🇦🇺 Australia
Okay, thrill-seekers, buckle up for the Trig Track in Victoria, Australia! This isn't your average Sunday drive. Think stunning views mixed with a serious dose of "hold-on-tight" action. First off, forget pavement. This 5.5 km (3.41 miles) beast is all about unsealed, rutted surfaces from who-knows-where to One Speck Track. We're talking bumpy terrain that will laugh at your average car. Seriously, you NEED a 4WD and some serious driving skills – and be prepared to ford the Aberfeldy River. Reaching a peak of 887m (2,910ft), Trig Track is usually closed from June to November, and trust me, you do NOT want to try it in the wet. It's challenging enough as it is! What makes it so wild? Twelve hairpin switchbacks so sharp they feel like a theme park ride gone rogue! Because it's so steep, and a bit of a hazard, the local park authorities came up with a crazy solution: even tighter switchbacks! Get ready for some multi-point turns and reversing uphill. Surreal doesn't even begin to cover it.
easyCrossing the Mitchell River at Drumduff Crossing
🇦🇺 Australia
Alright, adventurers, listen up! Ever heard of Drumduff Crossing out in the Shire of Mareeba, Queensland? This isn't your average road – it's a super cool causeway that acts as a bridge over the Mitchell River. The low concrete causeway stretches 208m (685ft), and it's part of the scenic Burke Developmental Road, which is just over a kilometer long. Now, here's the thing: this drive can be a breeze if the weather's on your side. But after some rain, things can get a bit dicey. The water crossing acts as a kind of weir, holding back water, but it can overflow when the river's flowing. Keep your eyes peeled for crocs if there's any water movement – seriously! Plus, the stream crossings can get washed out or stay too deep. But if you're careful, this outback drive is awesome!
hardWakehurst Parkway is one of Australia's most haunted roads
🇦🇺 Australia
Okay, buckle up, thrill-seekers! You HAVE to check out Wakehurst Parkway, just a stone's throw – about 26 km – from Sydney, hugging those stunning northern beaches. This isn't just any stretch of asphalt; it's a 14.5 km ride into local legend! But fair warning: this road has a seriously spooky rep. Think way more than just a creepy vibe after dark — we're talking a history dark enough to make your skin crawl, with tales of fatal crashes and, allegedly, a favorite spot for disposing of… well, let's just say some *unwanted* items. Locals whisper about the intersection with Warringah Road being the epicenter of the weirdness. The most famous story? A ghostly hitchhiker named "Kelly." Legend says she jumps into cars after midnight, and if you don't tell her to scram, she'll "help" you steer right off the road. People describe her appearing and disappearing, sometimes even claiming she's materialized in the back seat! Whether you believe it or not, Wakehurst Parkway delivers some seriously eerie vibes alongside its views. Drive carefully, and maybe keep an eye on your rearview mirror... just in case.
