TUCKED AWAY IN A TINY NSW TOWN, YOU'LL FIND AN INCREDIBLE MUSEUM

LOCATED about halfway between Newcastle and Port Macquarie, just off Highway 1, you'll find a remarkable collection self-titled the National Motorcycle Museum.

The modest frontage is doing a bit of a Tardis - small on the outside and a big surprise when you stroll inside and start to get to grips with the sheer scale of the exercise. Holy heck has it grown! We're talking maybe eight times its original size.

I come from Cootamundra," says owner Brian Kelleher (pictured) "and am a motor mechanic by trade as you couldn't get a motorcycle apprenticeship. Before I was 20, I was planning to have a motorcycle shop and then eventually a museum when I retired."
