Does anybody know how long it would take to get from the LAKELAND turnoff to the tip straight up the main road? A mate reckons he did it in 4 to 5 hours.
No side tracks taken.
Hey mate - Lakeland to the tip is just shy of 750kms? Doing it in 5 hours would mean he was travelling at 150kms per hour? Or are you talking from a different spot?

Read Ron and Viv Moons book on the tip, some regard it as the bible, travel as light as possible. There are a few going late August early sept.
