it would be nice to think they'd replicate a lot of the stuff they've done between the Byron turn off and the Tweed along the whole thing. dual lanes, 110 speed limit, good surface etc.
As a mini driver and motorcyclist I disagree.
Have you driven the old highway from Byron through Baringbar and Mooball through to Mur'bah? That piece of road is frickin awesome. Wide, steep, twisty, smooth, and virtually no traffic. Have to watch the piggy that patrols on the bike tho.
My bike loves it. Can pretty much hold it flat. Knee down. Watch the two speed cameras though (they are sign posted, so no real problem).
If you do get down there, there is also a great piece of road between Mur'bah and Currumbin. I used to do it on the bike all the time. Nice and tight, so little machines have the advantage. I love taking wankers with big bikes up there, especially if they think they are the crap.
