Got up early (relatively) for a van tour of Agnes Water and 1770. It's actually 2 separate towns, but they're always named together and are only a couple minutes apart. One is the old town and one is the new town, or something along those lines. The tour was alright, it showed us all the parts to town (the red building, the green building and the bar). But mainly it was just a sales pitch for the various tour companies and activities in the two towns. After it wrapped up, we grabbed some Worx burgers (Agnes Water style) that were decent but didn't live up to the ones in Rainbow. Then came the moment we'd been waiting for over the whole past week; Scooter Roo. We took the shuttle to the compound where we were fitted into some leather jackets and helmets and got to choose our motorbikes. The bikes are actually 50cc scooters but are built to look like motorbikes with low, mid, or high handlebars. So obviously we both took the high-handlebar chopper style bikes. After a brief safety message, we were off, looking lean and mean on our hogs. The guides led the group through the two towns and on some back roads where we got the bikes ripping up to about 75 km/hr. Stopped at one point to watch some kangaroos, then wrapped up with a box of chips on the 1770 beach to watch the sunset. Amazing 3 hours and made me want to buy a motorbike more than any movie or piece of media ever has.
