Geelong to Sydney
With Mike Eggert
Aussies love their lamb and we also love a road trip – we kind of have to, we inhabit the largest island in the world – accounting for 5% of its total land area.
So, we thought we’d combine the two and go on an epic lamb road trip from Geelong to Sydney through some of Australia’s lamb producing heartland.
Mike was in Geelong for a pop up at The Hot C****** Project (editor note – no chicken allowed) and so our journey began there and ended three days later in Sydney.
We travelled 1,346km and sampled eleven lamb dishes at nine different venues – all decidedly different and all delectably delicious.
Winding our way across the countryside, we had the “tough job” of sampling some of the country’s finest at local restaurants, bakeries, bars, pubs and cafes along the way.
It was one epic adventure jam-packed with lamb and lots of laughs – and what road trip is complete without some cheesy tourist stops?!
We hope you enjoy the Roadies journey as much as we did.
