Australia Bikepacking

Am heading to Australia for a month of bikepacking (Oz Alps or NSW High Country loop) Jan/Feb 26

I wanted to do Hunt 1000 but will consider Alps option. I will email ya to discuss.

Next time I go yo Oz i want to do the Sydney loop. Are there regular groups or riding clubs to join?

Tasman Trail 3 wk loop looks wicked (ATB dataset). Any locals that i can join & when? Me flexible.
