Our first day should go like this.
Arrive early morning.
Put bikes together at the airport.
Train to Circular Quay.
30 minutes on ferry to Manly.
Ride 30k to Palm Beach.
30 minutes on ferry to Ettalong.
Ride 37k to The Entrance.
Find someplace to sleep and then go eat a roast dinner at the bowling club. Roast beef, potatoes, gravy, mmm. Or maybe a steak with chips. Ice cream. VB.

This is what my bike looks like loaded. It rides quite nice with the extra 35 pounds of gear on it. The two bags on the handlebars are empty as of now. I still haven't packed all the little things, like cameras and contact lenses, so I expect to add ~5 pounds more in electronics and toiletries. That's my surfmat and fins on top of the tent on the back rack. I expect to get a lot of chances to ride it in new places as we'll be moving a bit slower along the coast and not just driving 100kph towards the next surfspot we already know about. http://www.surfmat.com/

These are the maps to our first destination of Crescent Head.
