An adventure with a difference

These little 250cc Honda Groms are super light and the perfect upgrade to my old scooter.

By Hollie Harris

Many may not know that I love adventure and have a huge appreciation of beautiful bikes. While I am a scooter rider on weekends, it’s not practical for me, as a mum of two, to invest big dollars into a motorbike and get my money’s worth out of one, but now I’ve found a great option right here in Noosa.

If you are craving a biking experience but can’t committ to owning one, then Tim Brujes can set you up on a rental that will get your heart started or help you plan a trip to take your bike far beyond Noosa.
My cheeks are still sore from the grin plastered across my face when riding the Harley Davidson FLD Switchback. Not a seasoned rider, I wasn’t sure how a long-haul sit down would fare on my tuckus, but this big bike is built for comfort.
There is something exhilerating about seeing the sights I drive past every day from the open air of a bike with a 96-cubic-inches 1650cc motor. I was surprised that I could smell everything and I imagine riding through rainforest or country side would be truly something. The rumble of the Harley was more of a purr, and actually quiet enough to still hold a conversation, so probably a great couples’ adventure.
