Quote from: West Aussie Glen on June 17, 2019, 11:49:55 PM<blockquote>Completed form for all meals sent.

If all of us having meals at Camp Banksia will help to keep it available for the rally may I  suggest that as there are several threads about Camp Banksia all those registered should be immediately contacted by phone to ensure they are aware of the meal booking situation.

I would be happy to do this if I am supplied with names and numbers.


Hi Glen, Chris and I are in Alaska as the moment. We can add info and  deposit when we in a more civilised place I cannot domform but if you can let them know we will do the group meals too. I will try and look in tomsee if you need more details. We are staying in the caravan at another venue. Garry and Chris Coombs.

Put me down as a HUGE TENTATIVE
The wife has given me the go ahead for the trip, but there is one stumbling block to overcome around mid April to May. I do NSW HSC marking, and need to see about the examination dates to workout if I'll be finished by the 14th, which would be my departure date. In the meantime, I will be making plans as if everything is proceeding as normal.

Ruben

Alrightie good people,
1. I have deposited half the payment at Camp Banksia - Heavy snorer here, they have been advised and we'll see how that gets organised.
2. I have paid for the breakfasts and Saturday dinner.
3. Bass Strait crossing all paid up. I paid for a 4 berth inside cabin leaving Melbourne Thursday night, 14/7 and leaving Davenport Sunday night 17/7. I am happy to share the cabin.

I am planning to leave Sydney Thursday morning between 3am and 4am and travelling straight down the highway. Are there any riding partners?

All that's left to do is services and new steering bearings in the September school holidays.

We are farkled up and rearing to go

The last run I did to Melbourne I made it an Ironbutt SS1600 Brisbane to Seymour for an overnight the day before boarding which gave me wriggle room to make the vital check-in time on Thursday 14th.  Any other crazies want to join me?  It could be your first IBA ride, if you want to get that under your belt.
We could make it Euroa if you wanted to just do the minimum (1635 vs 1713km, both via west Sydney).  Inland is more direct, but there have been too many roo strikes out west for my liking, and the time is the same.

Had a couple of VIC members ask what they get for the Saturday evening dinner for $30.  We generally agreed that two courses would not be sausage and bread, but all the same, some people like to know.

I couldn't find any details anywhere. if they / me only had a "man" look, could someone post a link, please?

Ruben,

I've been working too hard and decided my riding has been neglected so on the market for another ST1300 and will be riding to Tasmania. I'm up to travel that way with you if thats OK?

Nathan,
Huge yeah. You and I have a similar riding style so it would be good company. Perhaps we can get together beforehand and discuss our preparations.
Will you be going to Rylstone on the 14th of September? Perhaps we can do an RTE this month. How does "Mountain High Pies" sound? Or, I found this nice place called "Chorizo Chasers" at Wetherill Park that makes awesome sausages in a roll.

Did we ever find out what the meal choices for Friday and Saturday night were. We have never attended the National Rally and were curious as to what we might get and are trying to plan what we will need to attend.
Thanks Rex

Yes, I asked a similar question a while back.

Had a couple of VIC members ask what they get for the Saturday evening dinner for $30.  We generally agreed that two courses would not be sausage and bread, but all the same, some people like to know.

I couldn't find any details anywhere. if they / me only had a "man" look, could someone post a link, please?

This is particularly relevant for a number of non-OzSTOCers (eight in all) touring Tassie with me on the weeks before and after the Rally.  We have booked a B&B just down the road from Camp Banksia and they are interested in attending the Saturday evening dinner but need to know:
  1.  Are they welcome?
  2.  What meal choices are there.

Re. Q1, I have had a non-OzSTOC guests on previous occasions, Mrs Williamson at Ballarat (but wives, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc. can be / are expected), Derek at Towoomba and Phil at Wooli.  But I'm not sure if eight friends is okay or in the spirit of OzSTOC.

My friend, I would suggest not bringing the girlfriend and wife at the same time, could get rather awkward, after all, they'd be fighting to get on the back of the STeed.  :Chocies

Naturally they could also register and receive rally packs and wear the OzSTOC rally shirt proudly....

The more rally pack contents I order the higher the chances on negotiating a better deal  ;-*

If anyone is interested in a Post Rally Run, I'm going down to the Gordon Dam on Monday and overnighting that night at the National Park Hotel ($70 for a single room). On Tuesday I'm heading back up to the north coast in preparation for boarding Wednesday night.  Diesel has suggested it is easily doable with a day to get down and a day to get back to Devonport. He suggests going through Poatina, Bothwell, Hamilton, Westaway there, and Queenstown, Roseberry, Wynyard, Burnie back.  All the great roads.  I've booked into accomm in Wynyard for Tuesday night leaving a leisurely day getting to Devonport. He said there's accomm at Strathgordon, but the only show I could see there wanted $149 for the night in a basic room.  The pub sounds nicer at half the price.

Had a good mate that had a 3 bedroom holiday house at Maydena (similar to the one in the link), stayed a couple of times at mates rates.  Bugger went and sold it.  Now he's just a mate.

..... the National Park Hotel .....

Whilst in the area Bill, don't forget to get a pic on the Township sign, a confirm my selection in this thread.

Yeah Williamson- on yer bike and go find a town or suburb starting with N.     :-(((      :grin

"Any Town" is kinda funny since you Photoshopped a sign to get it.

I deduce from all the foregoing it's OK to reuse town signs in further "solutions".  So I should be out there collecting the alphabet with a few common doubled letters.

Re. the ride, a big day on the bike, but as a Far Rider, you'll be quite capable.  Me?  Probably not so.  Last ride to and from Lake Gordon dam wall was from Maydena.  With pics stops (plenty) and afternoon tea at the Wilderness Lodge (good coffee, but that was 2014), it was a full day.
