I was over near Launceston over an extended Cup weekend
I was visiting my old man (with the family) who has moved there recently.
He is ~40kms north of launceston, at a place called Beauty Point. Pretty speccy.
We did a couple of day trips. I unfortunately was driving the family in a Holden dunnydore
Man their roads are amazing. You never see a pot hole, the roads are very very rarely straight, there are hardly any one using them & there doesn't appear to be any cops!
I kept saying to my wife: "I wish I was on a motorbike (fireblade) or in the BM!"
I can really see why they have the Targa rally. Simply awesome!
Weather wise, it was not cold, around 2-6 degrees cooler than Melbourne, although the sun when out seems to have more punch. I couldn't believe how much the temp varies throughout the state.
