How many gorgeous beaches in one day?

Murwillumbah to Coffs Harbour
386km

This morning Reba and I headed east out of Murwillumbah following alongside the Tweed River. We hit the coast at Kingscliff and started following the coastline south.
It was a beautiful sunny day and the temperature was absolutely perfect for riding.
Some time ago, a friend suggested that if coffee shops routinely get your name wrong (which they do), pick a different name!
I thought I'd test the theory again today - and yep, Luca is a name they never seem to get wrong! So thanks Luca for letting me borrow your name at coffee shops 😊

We continued on down along the coast, pulling in at many of the little towns to drink in the views.

We passed through Byron Bay where we stopped at the main beach to watch all the tourists and holidaymakers.
We rolled into Ballina and Reba decided we needed to stop at Bunnings to pick up a couple of items. Personally I think it might have been she just wanted to have a closer look at the giant prawn while I shopped.

From Ballina, I thought we'd make Coffs Harbour no worries at all. So I rang ahead and booked some accommodation.
Google maps says its only 2 hours. Once again I had forgotten that I need to add at least 50% with Reba.
Its dark and cold when we roll into Coffs Harbour and I hope that I have finally learned this lesson!Read more
