So there's a company in Australia that rents out motorcycles, and you can either take a self-guided tour or a guided tour. Tours last from like 3 days to a whole month! The price covers accommodations and your bike for the trip (as far as I can tell). Definitely on my bucket list; if 'rona season ever ends, this is where I'm going!

That's awesome. Now we just need a teleporter. : D
It might sound strange but I'm perfectly content riding in North America, the US and Canada. I feel there's enough to see and do here that I don't really desire to go anywhere else on two wheels. I see the places Itchy Boots goes to and I'd rather see more of the US than go to those places!
At one point in my life I was all about the world travel idea. The older I get, the more I'm on board with your line of thinking. I'm too used to the ease of life and relative comfort that I would get out of travelling here, too. My cell phone and credit cards will just work, I pretty much know where I'm going, and there is so much to see and do that I haven't done yet.It might sound strange but I'm perfectly content riding in North America, the US and Canada.

Australian wildlife straight up terrifies me.
There are lot's of redwood trees along the 101. Dewey would know more. But I can speak for the California side of the 101.
The redwoods don't go much past the OR/CA border. 101 has it's pretty spots for sure. But it also has lots of traffic, RVs, and small towns with 25mph speed limits. The Olympic Peninsula stretch is nice as well in WA. Big Sur and the southern Oregon sections of 101 are my favorite parts.
lol and the roadtrip which lasts...
Awesome response!Recently I'm heading more and more towards the idea that it doesn't matter that much where to ride but it matters not to go back to work
But jokes aside - I want to go on a long motorcycle trip (like 6 months ish) - and it's not that important if it will be in some nice areas of EU or Asia or America. Any mountains would work for me
I used to live in Zurich and I’d travel to Tuscany for wine tastings through Innsbruck to go around the Italian Alps, because the Stelvio Pass was closed, in late May. I’d often have to turn around and find new routes because the road would be hardpack snow. Then I’d get caught in a snow storm coming back as I rode through the St. Gotthard tunnel. I was riding a FireBlade. meanwhile the riding in Italy was really hot. Very difficult to deal with the weather. Even just going on roads that had elevation changes you could easily change 30-50f in 5-10 minutes.The Swiss Alps are beautiful, and great to ride, if the weather is playing ball!
They’re extremely strict with speeding. ItAly is just as beautiful and they don’t care about speeding.
