  1. The Esplanade-to-Northcliffe Terrace; Surfers Paradise, where this accident occurred, is one of the most unsafe strips of road for Cyclists, Scooters and Pedestrians around Surfers Paradise.

    The number of new-misses I’ve seen and have personally experienced along there… . Even as an experienced Road cyclist, I could never feel comfortable riding along there.

    It’s baffling how Gold Coast motorists tolerate badly designed stroads - designed for their convenience - despite the trauma it exposes them too.

    And Tourists, please be mindful: the streets and roads in our ‘Tourism capitals’ are not tourist/pedestrian-friendly like what you’d experience at home.

  2. GPS Misadventures on the Gold Coast?

    The beach is a surprising one, but there's plenty of others to be careful of including one that takes you up a 60% gradient climb firetrack up Springbrook.

    One frustrated local described his correspondences with Google, which refused to take responsibility and remove dangerous route suggestions.

    Lots of fun
