Title: Future OzSTOC National Rally Dates and States....
Post by: Diesel on January 29, 2014, 09:33:04 AM
Hi Everyone,


Some of our Members require long range forecasts to obtain annual leave, and have asked me to consider putting up the dates and rough locations of the next few OzSTOC National Rallies.


I tried to avoid clashing with the Ulysses AGM and School Hols for that state....PLUS - location Vs climate for that region etc.


I am sorry if some dates can't suit you, but I have to play to the general rule, not exceptions. In saying that - there is plenty of notice below:



2012 - NSW - Blackheath

2013 - Middelton - S.A


2014 – Ballarat _ VIC

2015 – Toowoomba QLD - 20-21-22 March

2016 – WA - 11-12-13 March

2017 - Wooli NSW - 20-21-22 October

2018 - Mackay QLD - 10-11-12 August


2019 - Tasmania - 15 - 17 November

2020 - NSW -  (MUDGEE] CANCELLED DUE TO COVID19


Start planning villains!

Don't think the 2017 Ulysses AGM has been announced as yet.  What do you know Diesel???
Anyway they can work around OzSTOC.

2014 – Ballarat

2015 – QLD - 20-21 March

2016 – WA - 8-9 April

2017 - NSW - TBA

Dates are in my calendar, not sure what good it will do for so far in the future, but they're "in" anyway.

No Tasmania or NT

Tassie is a special trip in itself, we talked about it, and we think we will make it a trip not a "rally" so to speak

NT is like WA involves a whole world of logistics, so we will knock down that door at some stage in the future

........ Tassie is a special trip in itself......

Ulysses 2016 AGM is 29 February to 6 March 2016 (according to http://tamartourers.ulyssesclub.org/News/tabid/4814/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/6502/Tamar-Tourers-Launceston-to-host-the-Ulysses-Club-2016-AGM-Event.aspx (http://tamartourers.ulyssesclub.org/News/tabid/4814/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/6502/Tamar-Tourers-Launceston-to-host-the-Ulysses-Club-2016-AGM-Event.aspx)).

Given costs involved with this part of the trip:
(http://i643.photobucket.com/albums/uu159/williamson_photos/Forum%20Inserts/MelbournetoDevonport_zps7224f0ab.png) (http://s643.photobucket.com/user/williamson_photos/media/Forum%20Inserts/MelbournetoDevonport_zps7224f0ab.png.html)

I reckon a large number or percentage of OzSTOC members would also be Ulysses members (do we have an idea on this one?), I think it would be prudent for serious consideration to be given for an OzSTOC trip to Tassie to coincide with the Ulysses AGM.  Just my thoughts .......

There's more than a month between the Ulysses 2014 2016 AGM at Launceston and the OZSTOC 2014 2016 AGM in WA, probably more than enough time for another event. 
I for one hope to be in Tassie for the Ulysses AGM 29th Feb- 6th March 2016

2015 – QLD - 20-21 March .....
Gold Coast? ........ If it's at Birdsville , I'm busy that weekend.....
Good point there.  Location will be important, but I'm sure (hope?) our organisers will select wisely, and on this assumption my planning has started.  Wisely (IMO) would be SE QLD, or anywhere as far north as the Hervey Bay area would be fine, but the judges' decision will be accepted as final.

Victorian school holidays are also a factor for Mrs W (Helen), which around this time will be from Saturday 28 March to Sunday 12 April 2015.  The AGM during the school term means Helen wont be able to attend - oh, what a shame!

But let me see (the scheming has started), mmmmmm:
*  A two or three day ride to the AGM means time off work from Wednesday 18 March - that's achievable.
*  AGM Friday 20 to Sunday 21 March.
*  Then tootle around SE QLD for the week - I have some unfinished business at O'Shanley's Irish Hotel in Clifton (I'm sure some members are familiar with this establishment), and the Lions Road needs to be reviewed, and, and .......
*  Helen flies up to SE QLD and we have a week from Saturday 28 March to Friday 3 April at some holiday resort, we have a usual place at Burleigh North we like.
*  A week riding home to Melbourne
*  Back to work Monday 13 April - yeah, that'll work.

I'll be needing (appreciate) some company riding up to QLD and tootling around the following week.  If anyone is interested they'll have a year or more to decide.

Logically, it's got to be SE Qld as the Rally incorporates a ride on the Saturday so the SEQ has em by the bucket loads. Toowoomba area would also be included in that.

We should start a sweepstake with some of the money raised going to the spinal unit or something...

I tried to avoid clashing with the Ulysses AGM and School Hols for that state....PLUS - location Vs climate for that region etc.


I am sorry if some dates can't suit you, but I have to play to the general rule, not exceptions. In saying that - there is plenty of notice below:


2014 – Ballarat

2015 – QLD - 20-21-22 March

2016 – WA - 11-12-13 March

2017 - NSW - TBA


Start planning villains!

Cheers, Diesel



Please note the date change for WA 2016......this just needed to happen due to a number of reasons including conflicting with the commencement of WA school holidays and increased holiday tariffs.

2017 - NSW - National Rally dates now released   :runyay


Some of our Members require long range notification to obtain annual leave, so we will continue putting up the dates and rough locations of the next few OzSTOC National Rallies a few years in advance.

I was really looking forward to WA, but SWMBO has reminded me that 2016 is her %0th and our 30th Wedding Anniversary and we ARE going to do something special!.  For something special read an overseas trip to somewhere exotic.  Apparently my suggestion of Perth wasn't exotic enough  :grin .  Normally this would not be a problem except her birthday is in early March.  :||||

Please don't try and move the dates, because the expense of the exotic will preclude any expenditure to get to Perth.

Planning is now well under way for NatRally 2018 in North QLD and has been for many months.  :wink1

We are now looking to 2019 and beyond and are seeking the assistance of the greater membership.

Using just some of the feedback from previous Rallies the currently running survey in relation to members 2017 NatRally experience we are asking for actual facilities/locations that posses the following qualities that may be potential venues to cater for up to 100-120 OzSTOC members and a future National Rally.

* A Park facility with a significant undercover area with lighting. (Our focal point)
* Rally dinner venue
* Close proximity to a general shop/tavern/pub.
* Variety of Accomodation options. (Cabins, Camp sites, Dorms)
* Small town feel (<5,000 pop.)

Its not an area or town we are looking for ....but actual venues known to you that we can investigate ??

So if you have an idea I would encourage you to do just a little leg work on OzSTOC's behalf and see if it can meet the criteria above and post them below

I look forward to seeing your ideas  :-++

The Ulysses 2013 National meet was at Mildura. It was the bomb staying on a houseboat for 5 days and relaxing it up  :rockon

My memories of Mildura in 2013 are of being touched inappropriately when buying a new jacket from the Honda dealer and a very short cab ride. 5 national rallies later and it STill hasn't been washed  :grin

* A Park facility with a significant undercover area with lighting. (Our focal point)
* Rally dinner venue
* Close proximity to a general shop/tavern/pub.
* Variety of Accommodation options. (Cabins, Camp sites, Dorms)
* Small town feel (<5,000 pop.)

* A Park facility with a significant undercover area with lighting.   Might be the most difficult to find.
* Rally dinner venue.  Walking distance (like Wooli) would be good.
* Close proximity to a general shop/tavern/pub.  Like Wooli.
* Variety of Accommodation options. (Cabins, Camp sites, Dorms).  Agree.
* Small town feel (<5,000 pop.) Agree, but perhaps a bit bigger.

I think there is no rush. The idea is when we are out riding over the next 12 months, if we come across a venue or place that would make a good Nat Rally location, then drop it on a list here so it can be considered for a future event  :thumb

Its not an area or town we are looking for ....but actual venues known to you that we can investigate ??

I think you'd be lucky to get anything like that outside of Adelaide as far as SA is concerned.

SO WE ARE  WOW:


National Rally 2019 is set to be in Tasmania in the first half of November 2019 (Exact dates soonish)

This has been in the planning for a couple of months with Diesel looking about the countryside....he is now going to engage his fellow Tasmates to help pull this together for us all.....

To be frank OzSTOC has long resisted having a NatRally in Tassie due to primarily the cost of travel on the Spirt of Tasmania.....but with so much to see on this outstanding Island we can resist no longer.

We envisage rally attendees will make a serious trip of it if their circumstances allow for some flexibility to travel while on the apple isle. We are attempting to have the venue relatively close to Devonport/Launceston regions so members can either start or finish a tour of Tassie from National Rally 2019.

Loads more to follow.... :popcorn

In my diary too!  And planning started already.

Probably go the weekend before, and return the weekend after (similar to a couple of other previous trips) and tour around for a three of four days either side of 15 to 17 November.

Given the location of the next and past NatRallies, in reverse chronological order - TAS, QLD, NSW, WA, QLD, VIC and SA (hope I'm correct) - I'd like it to be NT.  But as there would be many, many logistical problems with organising and travel with an NT destination, I'm guessing SA (or perhaps VIC), and only these if there's enough volunteers in these parts to do the organising.

I guess it depends on whether the 2020 event will be earlier or later in the year.
You wouldn't want it in winter in the southern states.
Having it in autumn would mean a short turnaround from Tassie.
Spring would be ideal.Adelaide hills anyone ?

Victoria had the biggest contingent at the Mackay Meet.  They might be in the strongest position to take out the 2020 event.
As per the post below, S.A. is potentially next, but there were only 2 from there at Mackay, so VIC is bumped up the list.

Run by Reg Ansett's Grandson.

I only order the quantity of shirts that are payed for plus about 5%-7% to allow for mis-sizing and a few late registrations.

Otherwise the club buys the shirts and never recoups the cost if we have left overs.....I still have over $500 of QLD Rally shirts sitting in the spare room that couldn't be sold.

So if you want to purchase a shirt because you are unable to attend OR wish to purchase a second shirt you WILL need to pay for so its part of the order.

Well if similar stocks from Wooli, makes sense to reuse left over shirts

We considered a couple of years ago naming a consistent NatRally date  :think1

But decided as we move around all over Aust the various climates that can evolve on that date would make one rally ideal but the next unbearable hot, cold, wet etc.....

Still I would welcome some feedback or a different view  :popcorn

Chris it will always be hard if not impossible to pick a date that suits everyone.
Some dates that affect people appear to be:-
Ulysses AGM
Superbikes at Phillip Island
GP at Phillip Island
Bathurst 1000
CMA
Border Run
Wall to Wall
Black Dog
School Holidays
and even then some would want it close to those dates and others well away from them.
Then there are significant birthdays and anniversaries.
For me most of the rally dates have fitted nicely but this years has taken some working around and not looking too good for next year.

I would need to double check about a seat or possibly a fitted harness but from what i understand they need to wear a helmet which i would say he is too small for yet. He's only 18 months not sure his neck muscles would be strong enough let alone trying to get him to wear it. Can't even get him to wear a sunhat   ;-*

From what i have read it appears that in most states to be a pillion children must be 8 years old and reach the footpegs.
A child can be any age in a sidecar but must have an approved helmet (so they would need to have strong enough neck muscles) and be seated at all times. 
so for our boy he would have to be restrained as he would not sit alone for long and I'm just not sure at what age their neck muscles would be strong enough to withstand a helmet for a period of time. might be worth asking someone.
He'll be in one as soon as he is ready  :thumbs

Think you missed the point there, Sicman...

Like I said, there were already laws in place...such as having to have both feet on the foot rests.
Young kids were already excluded if they couldn't reach the foot pegs so why the need for an age limit?.
All the age limit did was to restrict kids that had been quite capable of riding pillion one day and then supposedly not after they introduced the new law...

Title: Re: Future OzSTOC National Rally Dates and States....
Post by: Sicman on October 11, 2019, 09:27:52 PM
No point missed - You can have a tall / large kid who can reach the pegs, but doesn't have the mental ability to comprehend how to be a pillion - i.e. leaning, gripping, hot mufflers

The age was introduced to have a national law to further reduce the chance of injury to all young pillions who can be so easily damaged in an accident  8)

Just looking at WA laws and find that if you do your license on a trike that is all you can ride but do it on a motor bike and you can ride a bike with a sidecar, how stupid the sidecar rule is:-

Trike Motorcycle (R-E class) LAMS approved
Trikes are defined as 'a motor vehicle with 3 wheels, but do not include a 2 wheeled motor vehicle with a sidecar attached to it that is supported by a third wheel'.

A person who completes a practical riding assessment on a trike does not demonstrate sufficient balance skills for the Director General to be satisfied that they can safely ride two wheeled motorcycles.

Accordingly, the R-E or R class granted to these applicants will be restricted with condition code 31 (restricted to ride motor trikes only).

These applicants are subject to the same eligibility criteria as other motorcycle applicants (e.g. they must hold an R-E class for at least two years before applying for an R class).

The surprise I had here was I could get a motorcycle licence riding a 250cc scooter with no requirement to use gears but got a licence to ride a 'manual' motocycle.  After twevle months I could apply for an open licence (no test) and suddenly ride the kwaka I now have.  I was worried I wouldn't be used to the clutch and gears but it wasn't a problem.  The only thing I took getting used to was having a foot brake.  Whilst I benefitted from it, I still don't think it's right that you can get a manual licence despite being tested in an automatic.

Post by: ruSTynutz on October 12, 2019, 09:23:54 AM
There's no logic in many of our laws...

Someone behind a desk is justifying his job by pushing through solutions to problems that don't exist.
The 8 year old pillion one is just one example.
8 years isn't a magic number that somehow makes them capable. Kids are riding bicycles and mini bikes well before that age so they obviously have the mental capacity, it's not rocket science to be able to sit on the back of a motorcycle.

Another example, which was pushed through at the same time as the age limit one was the banning of transporting animals such as dogs etc on the tank of motorcycles. Was there an actual problem??? No...

Then there was the law they tried to introduce that would ban lane filtering/splitting, supposedly because it was so dangerous. It was only that it was worded so badly that it failed to be passed. As we all know now, it's now legal to filter pretty much Australia wide, amazing seeing as it was supposedly so dangerous not too many years back...lol.

Yet another which makes absolutely no sense to me is the requirement (in Queensland) to hold a car licence before you can get a motorcycle licence....cos driving is so similar to riding a bike...lol

Then of course there's the issues that West Aussie Glen & Bodø mentioned...  >:()

Perhaps I had better step down from my soapbox now... :whistle  :hijacked  :grin  :Stirpot

It would be interesting to know from maybe some of the medical professionals in this group what age they feel a helmet can be worn by a child safely.  I know the skull bones don't fuse together until around 2 years so wouldn't even think about it until after that. 
If you have any advice maybe pop me a message.

Good skills Chris, and others assisting and organising.

Like Bodo, email sent.  For me, to reserve a two bedroom standard cabin for two nights. 

Admin / Mods, I suggest a new thread for accomodation sharing.  I know we had one for the Oct 2020 Mudgee Nat Rally (probaly early Nat Rallies too), but that got a bit untidy with hi-jacks and banter and (for me) got a bit hard to follow.

We've changed our booking to March. 
Regarding previous mention of badges, patches etc for the non-2020 Rally, why bother?  It's not happening.  It's not like there's such a thing as a "Complete Unbroken Sequence". I'll be satisfied to say I've attended every Rally so far and have a patch for all of them that happened.

The 2021 Mudgee NatRally was cancelled due to Covid-19  and the surrounding travel and other uncertainties, so I think we will all need to make do with our local RTE's for the rest of this year.    I guess we're all waiting to see what 2022 has to offer for a NatRally.   :popcorn

It's really hard to plan until the vaccine roll out is almost complete.

With the end of March 4 million target missed by 3.5 million, its going to be a long time before anyone can plan with confidence.

We do have six to eight months left in 2021, plenty of time for a National get together.   Something can be planned, if it can't go ahead due to COVID (or any other reason), plans can be abandoned (like what happened twice with Mudgee), and some like minded (some may say fool hardy) members can still meet for an RTE.

A get together does not have to have all of the flair (registration, awards, badge, T-shirt, formal dinner, guest speaker, etc ..) normally associated with a NatRally, just a date, a destination and a group booking for dinner at a local pub or club.

If numbers are to be maximsed:
Re. T-shirts and badges, these could be ordered (and paid for) by attendees and delivered after the event.

If anyone else is interested, let me know and I'll make a few enquiries.

I would be more than interested Sir Michael. Bourke would make a great destination. Royal Enfield club recently held their AGM in Sutton NSW at the Capital Country holiday park which was a great venue too. I would also like to propose Nambucca Heads in October 22-23-24 if anyone’s interested.
Covid will be with us for some time to come and we must learn to live with it, albeit cautiously.

September / Oct I am planning on doing H'way One clockwise with my friend from Victor Harbor and his brother. I may leave my bike at Victor, fly home and then return to do the rally. As such Broken Hill or some where closer to Victor would work nicely for me. Also close to a major airport so Theresa could join us.

Nambucca Heads does sound nice.  Alas, a change of employment for me in january and no annual leave up my sleeve pretty much rules out interstate travel for me for the year.  The thought of applying for cross border permits doesn't help either.

If numbers are to be maximsed:
  • The destination would need to have as few as possible State Border crossings, the State that fits this is NSW
  • Reasonable travel distance / times to suit as many members as possible, Bourke seems to fit
  • Plenty of accommodation and eating options, Bourke seems to fit.

Me too.

I chose the refund.

Bodo is the winner here.   I don't think the Mudgee Big4 was up to the usual Big4 standards, and whilst I would go back to Mudgee (Mudgee is very vibrant and lots of things to do in and around), I would prefer to stay somewhere better.

The park was just a little 'tired' looking, could do with a spruce up, and it is a little too far out of town for my liking.  If it wasn't for Bloodman (Justin and Alison)and Joso proving a taxi service for Nigel, Johnny and me - we woulda been lost.

We will definitely get there one day.

And when you do, you could do worse than looking-up Joso, there isn't anywhere, anyone, anything he doesn't know about Mudgee and surrounds.
