Bike price is about on par with UK and your insurance as well.  You seem to get fuel for next to nothing as here its about £1.20 but changes on a daily basis.

That's what makes the difference Robert. Australian dollar to Sterling. Our friends from Brisbane had a cheap holiday with us in 2013. Bernie  arrived with empty suitcases and Eric took a new mountain bike back with him.
At more than two Australian dollars to the pound things are looking up for us at last.
By the way do you have the draconian speed limit enforcement in NSW that they have in Victoria? That must take some of the fun out of riding a bike in that part of the world.
