Postie Bike Challenge 1

In 2006 a bunch of people thought it would be a good idea to join the Postie Bike Challenge to ride from Brisbane to Alice Springs over 10 days. It lived up to its promise of being a challenge...

Hey Tim, Bruce here - I'm planning to do the ride again this year, to Darwin this time, are you game to go again??

Wish I could Bruce, but business requirements are going to prevent me. Sounds like a great run, and look forward to doing it again one year - hopefully soon!

Hey mate, just wondering- Do yous avoid highways on the challenges? Is it safe/legal to ride posties on highways? I plan on riding my postie to uni but its a 20 minute trip on 90km p/h freeway so im not sure.. This looks like awesome fun, i love posties!

For some reason, videos on your account load painfully slow for me. I have to cue them up for a few minutes before they'll play, then they need pausing. Unfortunate because I'm trying to watch the whole series :)

Oh, and as a Pom, when I DO do this, I promise all the Aussies I won't whinge!

As someone who wants to do this, I'd just like to say cheers for posting these. When I'll get the cash to do it, I don't know, but I will. The flight to and from the UK does put the price up a bit though! I've done two rides in India- one in the south, one up in the Himalayas, and love to see new places. I've also got a real penchant for anything with a Honda C-series engine in. Will be working my way through these vids on this lazy sunday afternoon.
