Sydney to Melbourne ride

Hey guys, I will be heading down to Melbourne for the comedy festival again this year and am contemplating doing the ride down again.Tthis ride is an almost certainty this year, barring injury or misfortune. Travel Dates have to be 24th march leaving Sydney and arriving Melbourne 30th march. will be same route as last time due to these time restraints. if anyone is keen let me know. Assume it will be raising money for charity as i copped a bit of stick from friends about it not being so last time.
Last time was just my brother and I, we took the Hume all the way to Melbourne in 7 days, staying pubs/motels at night.

Some photos are on this blog.

I would be down for this, but I wanna go to france this year and do the French alps. can't afford the time off work.

All the best though. I'm jealous.

ahh that would be awesome! Trent and I have been talking about riding to Melbourne fixed for a while now. I don't think we will make that date though.
