After the Xmas festivities i loaded my bicycle panniers and took the overnight ferry to Tasmania, across the Bass Straighs.
Surprised to find that Tassie has the largest crop of legal poppies in the world which is used for medical use.
The hills are so long and steep with a loaded bike, but compensated by beautiful scenery, quite different from "the Mainland!"
Staying with locals allows me to really get my feet under the table and experience the real flavour of life here.

I knew a bike would be involved in your travels at some stage. Tasmanians have bit of a reputation among Australians. Do you notice anything different about them? (He said carefully)
