Outstanding effort WAG.

I am departing Brisbane around the 17th for Canberra Ballarat Perth Geralton then back to Mudborne for a Nov 9 ferry providing I am physically able and or the Beemer doesn't throw a wobbly.

Stage 2 was to ride the sidecar to Tassie via the Spirit of Tasmania and then fly home.
Shortly after leaving home I met up with Mitch who rode with me to Norseman. We saw a CTX 1300 refeuling at one petrol stop.
Sunday saw Mitch heading for home and me to Eucla,
Monday on to Wudinna then Victor Harbor Tuesday to overnight with friends Steve and Christine
Wednesday headed for Steve's 1,000 acres at the back of Tintinara about 2 hrs east of Victor Harbor.
Here I helped Steve and his mate Pete prepare for the 140th birthday party (both Steve and Pete turning 70 this year).
By late Saturday afternoon we had been joined by about 35 caravans, about 100 people and numerous dogs ready for that nights birthday celebrations.
Sunday morning after bacon, eggs and pancakes I headed for Horsham. The first 6 kms being dirt I was happy to see just the odd puddle remaining from 13 mm of rain on the Friday night. In Horsham I had coffee with two mates from the group I rode R66 with several years ago then onto Creswick for the night. Monday morning catch up with a friend in Creswick then head to Port Melbourne to catch the nights ferry. There was another CTX 1300 catching the ferry.
Tuesday rode to my cousins near Geeveston and but the sidecar to bed where it will be stored until Theresa and I fly to Hobart the Friday of the rally.

Sounds like you will be doing some ks.
Let Yorkie know when you will be in Peth and hopefully a gathering of Perth OzSTOCers can be organised to say hello. I will be away which is why the sidecar is now in Tassie.

The owner of my favourite brewery told me yesterday about a magical
disneylandish/charlie and the chocco factory utopia in Preston.
I'm going to try and visit it the day before sailing Mr Butters ....

equipped with a bar that has 72 taps, a beer garden, a hidden tiki bar, a lagoon and waterfall, and a food menu that will satisfy all group sizes and dietary requirements

What a coincidence, my daughter mentioned on Saturday that she and son-in-law visited Moondog on Friday night (opening of the new Preston venue), and thought it may be worth a visit.

Let's see if we can get the stars to align, but do I have to read back through posts to see when you are in Melbourne and sailing to Tassie?   In other words, when are you in Melbourne?

Camp Banksia allows BYO Grog. They don't sell any grog, so pre arrange what you want/need. You can also BYOG with dinner and lunches in the mess hall too.

I'll bring as much fermented grape juice that the panniers will allow ............ (unfortuantely, the amber fluid needs to be very cold for me to imbibe, and I shall not have said facilities) Could there be import taxes or prohibitions imposed by our magical red and white floating conveyance?  :think1

Bring as much red and white from the Mudgee region as you can fit in the panniers, leave with me in St Helena (a 30 minute ride to the ferry), as it might be confiscated by Customs, pick it up as you head back north.

Well I like the plan.

I checked it out last Saturdee arvo.  WHAT A SPOT!!!!  Think of the best beer hall you have ever been too, and then add STEROIDS.

Hi Taswegian Organisers.

I haven't seen a mention anywhere that I can recall-
Will there be a buy/swap table at the Rally?  I've got something I could bring...
(apart from "Little Hotties")   :p
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
