Clancy’s gone to Queensland ridin’
Upping stumps and going walkabout is perhaps the most ingrained Australian and Kiwi tradition apart from never missing your shout. Well, we’ve picked up on that and we take you (quite cheerfully) away for an afternoon’s ride or a trip around the world. Most of all, though, we try to make it possible for you to have great trips as well.
Over the course of a year we feature local rides in every Australian State and in New Zealand, as well as journeys overseas in places as diverse as Sabah and Croatia. We try to take you to some of Australia’s favourite travel destinations like New Zealand, the USA, Italy and SE Asia as often as we can, too.
One thing’s for sure: travel with ARR can rarely be described as “run of the mill”.
What started off as a nice leisurely Sunday morning ride for breakfast turned into a mini adventure, complete with dirt tracks, water crossings and getting caught in one of the heaviest downpours I have ever ridden in.

So, the Bear wants readers to write a
travel story. How hard could it be?
A bike (Aprilia Caponord - check),
camera (Minolta – check) and few quotes
from a classic author (um…right…Google
– check).
