Welcome to . . .


(www.motorcyclesaust.com)

The site demonstrates how 'RoadSafe' awareness can be promoted
using the Internet and intergrating Tourism and Road Safety. The site provides
up-to-date information relating to road conditions, Road Safety messages and provides
vital information to tourists, whether arriving by a two or four wheeled vehicle.

The 'tourism' component of the site provides a photographic view of
points of interest, townships and revival or rest stops.

The major attraction of the site is the Regional Map which provides clickable areas to
access sectional views of the main routes in/out of each focal region.

The Sectional Maps have clickable icons.
When 'hovered' they display an image and text relating to that issue, such as:

  'No Surprises' locations

  Rest Stops

  Items of interest

When 'clicked' the icons display the enlarged version of the image.

The site contains a range of Road Safety information such as:

  • Link to VicRoads "Road Conditions" page for current updates
  • 'Sleep Dept' (Fatigue)
  • Survival Tactics
  • Cornering - entering/exiting
  • The RideOn video promotion
  • Information from "The Right Line" booklet
  • Regional weather - updated daily
  • Rider Training - including promotional advertising from trainers
  • Motorcycle maintenance hints and tips
  • Barry Sheen - 'The Ride' and 'The Legend'
  • Links to related sites, regional tourism sites, etc.
  • Downloadable Town and Regional Maps
  • Downloadable PDFs on roadsafety issues
  • Links to supporting organisation's websites, such as VicRoads, Regional Council, RoadSafe

The list is only limited by the requirement to expand these horizons.

The site's longevity is expected to be maintained by advertising from a range of sources including manufacturers, retailers, hospitality and accommodation hosts.

The site is/will be linked from such high profile websites as "phillipislandcircuit.com.au", "gippslandlakes.com", "lakesandwilderness.com.au", "ulysses.org.au" and many others.
