RUST magazine: RUST Australia Special
RUST magazine: RUST Australia Special We join Touratech on a three-week adventure ride into The Outback! The guys at Touratech HQ had a seriously busy 2016, so what did they do to find some stress relief at the end of the year? Yep, they jumped on their bikes and went for an adventure ride! Again, through our special relationship with the T-Team, our editor JB got invited along. And he was so glad he was, as the Outback ride became his ride of the year. Australia is no hidden gem but sometimes it might just be a little underrated – in the words of the Australians themselves: the country is ‘sensational’. So here’s that trip, in JB’s words and pictures (and those of his companions). And we guarantee after reading this you’ll want an Australian adventure of your own. Oh, and keep an eye on Touratech’s website, come June they’ll have a full-length film of the adventure… We trust you’ll enjoy it! JON BENTMAN (Editor, RUST)

Adventure<br />
, despite the well-graded piste, despite the vast horizons, we were not travelling at<br />
t speed. I’d come down to 70km/h and even that was too much. Regular stops were<br />
, to absorb both the magnitude and the detail. For in a terrain that is consistently<br />
to as ancient and infertile the flora not only dazzles but changes, constantly. There is<br />
t infinite variation in textures in this semi-arid land – it’s not to be rushed. and for the<br />
absorb all of this (it can’t, but it tries) takes time. Finally, there is so much of it – as said,<br />
u’re talking millions of square kilometres then hours of riding result in no more than<br />
es of progress measured on a map. You can cross entire european countries in less<br />
n it takes to go between two towns out here.
