Hi mate,
If you are really new to off roading try torrens island out behind the submarine building sheds. Some light duty stuff, hills, dips, deep corrugation and there are usually a few other bikes and cars around if you get into trouble.
Also some sandy tracks you can try but stay off the beaches if at all possible or choose a high line. A mate of mine was driving a PIMPED up Landbruiser on the beaches and hit a mean soft bit at 40kmh; end result axles in the sand and a hefty tractor towage bill I can already hear people blaming the car...). Plus the salinity of the water out there has permanently corroded his underbody after only 2 hours exposure and $15 at the pay and spray washer.
Good luck and have fun.
