Here's my blog post about my Phillip Island track day:

Other random notes;

-There were more than a few rare/cool bikes out there. A RC30, 2-stroke 250's, a Benelli Tornado...
-Phillip Island management is way more anal than any of our tracks
-There were a SHIT TON of flies. I think there was some sort of seasonal plague in Melbourne and the surrounding areas
-Phillip Island has a popultion of Little Blue Penguins, which are a pretty big tourist attraction. They have burrows up to several hundred meters inland and you can do a tour to come see the adults when they come in from the ocean at night. There are also wallabies that live on the island.

-How many utes do you see?



After doing this I'm thinking that I might want to do more flyaway track days, albeit at tracks a lot closer than Australia. When I think about it, I've only ever driven/ridden on East Coast tracks, I'd like to at least do places like Laguna and Miller some day.
