World records for fastest motorcycle ride around Australia
The official route for the record around Australia is via Highway 1, visiting every capital city (except Hobart) starting at any point travelling clockwise or anti-clockwise. This official route was deemed necessary due to the great discrepancy in the distances covered by the riders. The first motorcycle ride around Australia was originally a $20 000 USD bet made in 1972 between 2 Americans, Entrepreneur Frank Wheeler (AKA Big Frank) and record producer Julian Grant.
Big Frank began the records riding on a 125 cc Hodaka motorcycle with his recorded time of 21 days and 0 hours in July 1972.
