G'day all,

If any one is planning on doing a bit of exploring around the area may I recommend Buchan Valley Roadhouse, I passed by here just over a month ago on a work trip and had the best home made lamb pie I've ever eaten. Lovely people too  :like

Here's my review to back up my story :)

Neil & Valerie, Denis & Diane are booked at the Hilltop Hotel, Omeo for the 26th May.
Making it a leisurely 3-4 day ride via Bright and other places, taking the chance to smell the roses along the way, one of the benefits of being retired.
See you there
Cheers
Neil

I thought I may make this one with Chris in the car but it looks as if we are stuck with training our newly acquired pooch for a few weeks on Sunday mornings. First day on Sunday without the dog. To see if the humans are trainable I guess.
So unless we put off the first few weeks of training whicjh is a remote possibility only we  will not make it.


Have a great weekend.
And keep showing our northern neighbours how to do RTE’s.

Unlikely for us to be there before 4:00pm.

Is there anyone  coming passed Traralgon on the way to Omeo

Depends on which route we ride.  Preferred ride will be via Hotham, but if there's forecast of too much chilly wet weather we'll be riding via Bairnsdale.   That would have us at Traralgon for lunch.  But either way, won't know until the Friday evening.

Updates in red.

Those who have indicated an interest, so far:
  • Jd and Chippy - accommodation booked 1/2 km from Hilltop Hotel (I hope it's not down the hill - it's down hill).
  • Michael and Helen - accommodation booked at the pub.
  • Denis and Diane - accommodation booked at the pub.
  • LarLah and Doggy - don't forget to book your beds.
  • STroppy - don't forget to book your bed.
  • Rex and Debbie - after a Farride, I reckon they'll sleep well - don't forget to book your bed.
  • Neil and Val - accommodation booked at the pub..
  • Nigel - don't forget to book your bed.
  • Gordo and Bill - don’t forget to book.

At the Inverloch RTE, Rex asked about timing of our evening meal because he (and I presume Debbie) will be participating in a FarRide, and thus could be late.  That being the case, I reckon well move from the bar to the dining room at around 7:00pm.  Hope that'll suit everyone.

Bonus is more bar time.

Extract from an email from Angie at the Hilltop Hotel in Omeo:

Hi Michael,

Just to let you know that we are still waiting on the rest of your group to book- in, as we only have Neil, Val, Dennis & Diane so far.  The others could miss out as we are starting to fill up.  Just thought l would let you know.

Cheers Angie

Mmmmmm ...... Neil, Val, Dennis & Diane, but no Michael & Helen - despite my two emails.  If you have booked in (like me) better give them a call (like me) to confirm.

If you are attending this event but have not yet booked-in, you should and probably sooner than later.

The Hilltop has a dinner, bed & breakfast deal for $120:00 per couple, which some of us have already booked.
