Gold Coast -> Sydney Tour (1st tour, would like some advice)

Postby Jacko11 » Mon Nov 21, 2016 3:20 pm

Hello! We are planning our first ever tour from Gold Coast to Sydney. We aren't too sure of how to start planning our route, so we thought to seek some ready-made routes from more experienced tourers. We would like to avoid the highway at all cost, and ride along somewhat densely populated towns. As we are camping along the way, a route that has camping grounds/tourist parks would be preferable.

Any route planning guide/resources would also be welcome.

Thank you!
Jack, Jimmy & Loic.

https://ridewithgps.com is a good website for planning trips.

You may even be able to find an existing route to use on the site.

They were heading north but this couple managed to avoid the highway at times.
