So after riding the Vic RTE yesterday I am supper excited for the national meet. The distance I covered yesterday is the same as the distance needed to reach West Wyalong for bed and butt rest... So I am pumped for this trip and cannot wait. I initially had my doubts about hitting the distance, see as it will be the longest in the saddle.
So I think this is the route I will be taking to get to West Wyalong.

Good onya Stringo - great to see you building up your distances and stamina.
I tend to stand on the pegs as I hit town/city limits to keep my circulation going well.
It'll be great to catch up at Blackheath again - I'm quite looking forward to it as well - there are some very cool things planned - so bring your vid cam as well as normal cam too.
Cheers, Diesel
PS - your mate still coming?
-
@Diesel yeah mate he is still coming, He finally got around to signed up here "SulkyBear"
@Kev I think is the final route. I was thinking we could meet in Bendigo?
-
Yeap I think that'll be the go. I'm meeting my friend Danny aka sulkybear at Newstead then push onto Bendigo to meet you then we can stop at Echuca for some food/Butt rest then continue from there.
I'll contact you closer to the date to cement it in. Did I read somewhere we were meeting a guy from SA?
-
Alan from SA is heading up...I'm not sure on which way he is travelling though...
Cheers
Kev
Via Broken Hill is the intended route subject to last minute route changes if any caused by flooding.

Yeah, well. I'm not riding to Broken Hil :p
-
StinkPete is on the list from SA to attend as well and no doubt take a route closer to yours.
-
If you know roughly where you will be we could meet up at Bathurst or somewhere. I could just keep on going around Panorama until you got there... Quite a few roads to keep me interested around that part of the world.

Saaz, that's a big drawcard for me...I'm going to do a lap or 10 when we get to Bathurst, so I guess we'll meet you at the top of Skyline :p

Nice... it's looking like an unofficial National OZSTOC ride from Bathhurst to Blackheath
-
Hey Kev, no changes mate. I Plan on leaving home around 7.30am so we should get to Bendigo around the same time as you...
What are doing on the way back, are you heading straight back or coming with us back along the coast?
-
No problems
