Tim's Ten Tips For Traveling Solo on a Motorcycle

These are my ten best tips for traveling solo on a motorcycle, heads up these are not logistic tips, they are mind set tips to help you get the most out of your next motorcycle adventure.

I have found it is best even when traveling with others to be a self contained unit that is independently operating within the group you are traveling with. This way if you need to split off for any reason nothing really changes except your company. This mindset has left me with not a ton of logistic tips for traveling solo because all my tips apply whether alone or with others. Instead I think it is important to approach solo travel with a mindset that will insure you benefit from the solitude and challenges that independent travel presents.

Solo travel is awesome and you should try it! Hopefully these tips will help you get the most out of it. Ride safe!!

Hope you enjoy this video, thanks for watching!

Bull shark found washed up after devastation of Cyclone Debbie in Australia

Beautiful places to travel to game :

A bull shark has been found in a puddle after flooding in north Queensland caused by Cyclone Debbie.

The metre-and-a-half bull shark was found on Thursday morning in a puddle in Ayr, just north of where Debbie made landfall earlier this week.

The shark was found dead after possibly becoming stranded as water surges through the area caused pockets of flooding.

travel, travel destination, travel advice, skyline, famous buildings, street life move hundreds of families from villages to towns where there was water available.
The aftermath of cyclone Debbie cause major problems in eastern Australia. Although the hurricane has now weakened to a storm, floods caused by the heavy rain in many places. Rescuers can reach difficult areas in the states of Queensland and New South Wales.

Near Mackay city came two days 1,000 millimeters rain down, while it usually falls in a year in 1500 to 2500 millimeters, say Australian meteorologists. In the Netherlands, an annual average of 800 mm.

The bad weather are households without electricity and roads are inaccessible. In the flood areas in Queensland are certainly all schools closed until the weekend, because the floods pose a threat to teachers, pupils and their parents for example.
Rainfall is also for the rescuers now the main problem, says correspondent Robert Portier. Some flooding areas are inaccessible, making it impossible to wipe or recover the power and telephone lines clean streets. Partly because we also have a good idea of the damage wrought by the hurricane. Even though we have seen enough pictures of ships smacked on shore and roofs blown off.
