    seems high - Melbourne to Brisbane is usually cheaper so maybe you are
    paying isolation tax ?

    get over your paranoia

    as atec states - unless you are going major centre -> major centre you are
    always going to pay a hefty surcharge - and it's not only bikes, that goes
    for anything

  8. Apparently you can't get good coffee there, so what's the point?

    Trains charge freight rates. By weight. And the only times I've
    enquired they made it very clear they didn't want to know.

    It's not that far! I ride from there to at least Sydney every year... It
    can be done in two days but three is better.

    What sort of bike is it?
