I rode this a few days ago. We stopped at the same place for lunch. Food is ok but definitely not amazing. Great vibe though. Those trucks are insane and really come at you quick. While 4wds and bikes slow down, trucks give no f’s. I went down the side too and that is definitely not compact dirt. I thought I was going to come off. They’ve really cleaned up the tracks along here. Great for driving but I loved the challenge when it was rougher with pot holes, imperfections and a mix of dirt, rocks, mud and sand. Kept you alert and made it exciting. It’s basically a road now. Plenty of challenging side single runs but they can quickly get you in trouble on an adventure bike. Definitely always stick to the left and really slow down on the corners or it could be good night.

The roads are built for log trucks, they have right of way. Because of the loads they can't run on the soft shoulders, You need to keep you eyes and ears open.

Mate l ride up there on regular basis and when the roads are in that good of condition it's not for the motor cycle riders there built and maintained primarily for log trucks and when you drive a truck with around 40 tone you don't like to step off the hard stuff onto the shoulders of the road that can lead to a roll over very quickly. l see log trucks or road trains l get off the road and wait for the dust to blow by and continue a lot of people expect a truck to move over and where possible they do but sometimes they move over and only spray you with big rocks not just dust as they pick all the lose stuff up and shower you with it Bike vs truck Truck 1 Bike 0

It is a public road though so everyone should drive with consideration of other users. It's only money that persuades those truckies drive so fast with no chance of avoiding others.

WOW !!! plenty of comments on that one ..... personally I would never ride that fast either in the Watagans nor on Murrays run .... the Watagans has many cyclists, walkers and 4wd 'ers, as well as pedestrians, & Murrays Run animals as well as the logging trucks, unless your video was sped up I am sorry I reckon you were riding to fast for that area ... I have ridden there many times ....never at a great speed ...... it's a great area in which we live ....
