Information

Enjoy your ride – but stay safe!

  • Tasmania’s scenery, wilderness, twists and turns make for fantastic riding – but take care, the conditions can be very different to the rest of Australia
  • Ride at a speed that suits the conditions – obey the speed limits but slow down if conditions require – remember that speed limits are a guide, not a target
  • Be prepared for road and weather conditions to change quickly

 

Look out for:

  • wildlife and roadkill – especially early in the morning and at night
  • Gravel, dirt, rocks
  • Livestock, farm vehicles, logging trucks and machinery
  • Caravans or bicycles travelling slowly
  • Overhanging trees and fallen branches
  • Black ice and moss – especially in shaded areas

  • With windy roads, and spectacular views – travel time can take longer than you expect
  • Don’t ride for too long in one day – Limit riding to 300km per day and take frequent rest breaks
  • Let someone know where you’re going
  • When riding in a group keep a safe distance between you and the rider in front of you.
