Chances of hitting a roo or car or pothole would be high I reckon. Would like to do the drive one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather looks decent too for the weekend. Just hoping the roads are clear and the other tourists decide to go anti-clockwise around the island Booked Sunday night in Queenstown so we can have a more leisurely day up the West Coast towards the boat Monday evening 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roads between Launceston and St Helens were brilliant fun. Perfect weather and a clear run for the most part with traffic - only traffic was on the boring straight bits. Port Arthur ghost tour tonight - will tour the place tomorrow in the daylight then off to Queenstown tomorrow via Hobart and the Cascade Brewery. 600+ kms today Only issue I've noticed that could impact a group cruise has been fuel. 95 seems to be the only fuel that's reliably available (thank f*ck I got the 95 tune when I got the gas put on - gas run out when I hit the coast). Haven't seen a single 98 PULP and only a single LPG outlet. Lots of places don't even have 95. That said - I haven't been through any of the "main" towns where the options appear to be available. Any planned cruise would need to take the fuelling needs into account. Food's great, scenery is brilliant and the locals are fantastic. The roads alone are worth the trip. West Coast will be even better :D Edited 23/04/16 12:32 PM by Rab 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
