Dayboro and surrounds is a really popular area for cyclist and visitors in general wanting to escape the city. If you're looking for what else to do when in town you can check out Dayboro.com. There are a few really nice cafes to have a pit stop at.

Thanks for the links Neil. I’ll have a lot of fun finding road reserves that aren’t overgrown.

Wayne, here’s the land parcel map (PDF) of Strongs Road:

You can get the Qld Govt overlay for Google Earth for all of Queensland here:

Use the “Land Parcel Boundaries” overlay to see where the road reserves are. The challenge is to find a road reserve which is not overgrown. There are heaps of them – you just have to look 🙂

Thanks Neil, that helps to clarify a few details.
Is that Government map available as a download? It would be interesting to see where one can and cannot go.

Hi Wayne
The road has “No Through Road” signs, but it’s a gazetted road reserve, and so is accessible to the public. Out of respect for the locals I wouldn’t drive a car through there, but no one will complain if you pass along it on foot, on a horse or on a bike.
If you’d like a government map showing the official boundaries please let me know.
