Mareeba, they have a great Rodeo there every year. i think they still have a very flash go cart track there too, and a few war museums too.
great rides thru there, kuranda range, gillies highway, palmerston highway, mt malloy -> port douglas -> cairns, very very nice stuff indeed.
im not sure when im coming thu mareeba again, i really enjoy the ride from townsville - > south johnstone ->palmerston ->tablelands -> mt malloy -> port douglas, ->carins
awesome run
next time i do go thru i will have my power commander 5 fitted as well, yippie!
next time i do come thru id love to say g'day to you & any others in the area, i believe there is a few in Cairns as well
