Tours back on track
THE re-opening of the Bloomfield Track earlier this year has regenerated opportunities for local off-road motorcycle tour groups to share the breathtaking beauty of the Daintree and Cape Tribulation.
Savannah Motorcycle Tours operator Andrew Porta said: “Riding the Bloomfield Track really is a sensational northern adventure tour for all levels of off-road motorcyclist”.
“Sure, it is enjoyable enough in a 4x4, but on a motorcycle it truly is a real sensory experience with the sounds and smells of the Daintree rainforest as you make your way along the track,” he said.
Visiting or local adventurers can book a two-day weekend adventure tour with the choice of a Honda Transalp 750cc, the Honda CRF 300 Rally, or your own motorcycle.
Savannah Motorcycle Tour guests not only get to experience Cape Tribulation and the Daintree, Mr Porta and his trail team include historic gold rush locations such as Maytown on the experience.
Should something untoward occur, the tour has a support truck on standby to ensure the day is not a loss.
“Safety is important, of course. We have a variety of riders, age groups and skill levels and, although the Bloomfield Track is a relatively easy track to navigate, this is off-road riding after all and the unexpected can happen,” Mr Porta said.
“Our Savannah Tour team is made up of highly experienced motocross and off-road riders and are happy to share that experience with either new riders or the older guest that wants to add this experience to the ‘bucket list’,” he said.
Mr Porta said one point of difference is that their other tour experiences do not require guests to sleep in swags after a hard day in the saddle and the Cape Tribulation tour was no different.
“Guests can wind down with a cool drink safe in the knowledge that their aching bones will have a hotel bed to fall into at the end of the day,” he said.
