These are some we visited on this trip. Gunnedah, gulgong, Narrabri, Bogabri, Moree, Bogabilla, Deniliquin, Molong, Goondiwindi, Murwillumbah, Mullumbimby, Taree.

Hopefully visit all the towns in the song in a couple of years.

There are numerous references to IBEM in threads on FarRiders.  It's been done, but there are a couple of tricky ones.

Oodnadatta, Tullamore, Seymour, Lismore, Mooloolaba,
Nambour, Maroochydore, Kilmore, Murwillumbah,
Birdsville, Emmaville, Wallaville, Cunnamulla,
Condamine, Strathpine, Proserpine, Ulladulla,
Darwin, Gin Gin, Deniliquin, Muckadilla,
Wallumbilla, Boggabilla, Kumbarilla,
Moree, Taree, Jerilderie, Bambaroo,
Toowoomba, Gunnedah, Caringbah, Woolloomooloo,
Dalveen, Tamborine, Engadine, Jindabyne,
Lithgow, Casino, Brigalow and Narromine,
Megalong, Wyong, Tuggerawong, Wangarella,
Morella, Augathella, Brindabella,
Wollongong, Geelong, Kurrajong, Mullumbimby,
Mittagong, Molong, Grong Grong, Goondiwindi,
Yarra Yarra , Bouindarra, Wallangarra, Turramurra,
Boggabri, Gundagai, Narrabri, Tibooburra,
Gulgong, Adelong, Billabong, Cabramatta,
Parramatta, Wangaratta, Coolangatta
Ettalong, Dandenong, Woodenbong, Ballarat,
Canberra, Milperra, Unanderra, Captains Flat,
Cloncurry, River Murray, Kurri Kurri, Girraween,
Terrigal, Fingal, Stockinbingal, Collaroy and Narrabeen,
Bendigo, Dorrigo, Bangalow, Indooroopilly,
Kirribilli, Yeerongpilly, Wollondilly

Someone with too much time on their hands calculated a route to cover them all- came in around 32,000 km IIRC.
I reckon I've got more than half, but will have to start again to document them with dated photos.
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

Mid North NSW Coast would be a good option. Gloucester is very motorbike friendly and has some great rides around. Also closeish  to Newcastle airport. Forster/ Tuncurry would also be good along with Taree, (good airport) Old Bar, Harrington, Port Macquarie and more.

I have never managed to organise myself for Phillip Island races, F1 and most other things. So looks like things are unchanged  :OldMan

I would not mind doing Hidden Valley V8s sometime as a good excuse, might see if an Ozstoc Hidden Valley overnight run is possible  :think1  I know Diesel has mentioned it before, but maybe time to get serious for once  :rofl

Hidden Valley is the weekend after FarRide North this year if you wanted to do both. A three day pass  is only $110 with free buses to and fro. I have spare beds and only live about 10km from the track.

This sounds like approaching a plan, but not this year.  Just looked at dates and I am in Coolangatta for a week just that time, a Qld RTE on that week, with Gulargambone just after. North #2 was on my list to do, but just does not work out...perhaps...I could get in late to Coolangatta... :think1...have to look at distances etc etc

I think I need to revise my ride planning somewhat!

The Towns I know of in country NSW with airports which we have technicians at are: Coffs Harbour, Wagga Wagga,  Tamworth, Dubbo. Any of these would be great annual rally destinations.

I believe Bathurst also has an airport and I reckon McPhillamy Park and Conrod strait would make great photo opportunities.
Cheers,
Gary

Somewhere in the Snowy mountain range would be awesome.

There is an awesome little place called Talbingo that is about 30 - 40 minutes drive from Tumut.

As National Rally Coordinator, I'm seeking expressions of interest from any member who may be willing to assist with the organizing of NatRally 2017, to be held on the 20th to 22nd October in northern NSW.   A location has been nominated (no speculation please), so PM me if you would like to be a part of the organizing team.   I have a package of resources to help any involved in organizing.

The National Rally venue for 2017 has been confirmed today, it's all ours  :thumbsup

And just to wet your appities on the location with a little hint.....

It's in the area between Tipooburra and Dareton and not all that far from Eden and Tweed Heads  WOW:

We have checked it out a few times and we believe we are on a winner.....but things may be just a little different on this National Rally  :p

I've had a small number indicate that they are happy to be part of the organizing team, and I'm just giving this post a BUMP.   Much of the hard work has already been done with Location, Caravan Park and dinner Venue already sorted out.  We just need some people on the ground to sort out the details.    :beer    PM me if you want to chat about what is required, and I'll send you my contact details.
