GoldWing content
We rent Honda Goldwing Motorcycles - GL1800's only.
We are located at Beerwah, on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland Australia. Our rates are very competitive with a host of standard inclusions including: full comprehensive insurance, 24/7 roadside assistance, GPS, unlimited kilometres, puncture repair kit and compressor, pannier inner bags plus luggage rack and bag.
We can also include by arrangement: helmet, jacket, wet weather gear, sunblock, insect repellant passenger floor board risers plus picnic set for day renters.
We also offer Airport / Hotel pick-up and self ride local guided day tours.
The idea behind the Appy Wanderers Touring Group is to promote friendship and a sense of adventure among all Goldwing owners and encourage ‘Touring’ which is what the Goldwing is designed to do.

A country-by-country blog, by two very experienced travelers in all parts of the world; Tell it like we experience it, do not seek to be obscurely delicate. Photos/videos included as we have time to upload them – the trip is in progress so computer time is scarce. Hotels, restaurants and other straight-forward recommendations/pans. It's a bike trip (this time) but have done pretty well all of Africa, Europe, the Americas by road & plane, so have a solid basis of comparison. He's 62 (hence the "wheezy") biz exec and she's 28, a French teacher, an unusual couple. Our point: Anyone can do this trip, here's how we did it; we know of no one else who did it on a GL1800 and so far no regrets on bike choice ... owned many BMW's too, so know bikes and 2nd-3rd world realities.
