I've just moved to the Gold Coast from the States, unfortunately towards the end of the windy season as it seems but I've been out a few times and hoping for some more.
Has anyone ever done or looked at doing a downwinder along South Stradbroke island? The wind would be cleaner on the ocean side but the inside might be a bit more interesting..? And safer?
presumably you could do this anytime, but access for your ride home is harder. better off to just start at say surfers paradise and end up at the spit, take the bus home.
