VIC RTE 2024
« on: October 26, 2021, 06:21:27 PM »
Edit - 5 December 2022, thread title changed 2022 to 2023 which continues on post #39.

Before Garry and I start on a DRAFT VIC RTE Calendar for 2022, now is the time for you to post destinations of interest, or destinations or venues you want to avoid.  As usual, dates and locations will be set after viewing what other States have on offer or planning.

In the 2022 calendar, I'll including an overnighter or two, one of which will be a camping effort.  This will probably be half-way between Melb and ACT or Adelaide or somwhere convenient for a tri-Stater to try and encourage a few more attendees.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the only 2022 event organised so far is the 2022 OzSTOC National Rally –  2 to 4 September at Mannum.  I won't be organising anything a fortnight either side of that event.

And maybe we could try for "Tooradin" again...

Perhaps we could try it midweek for something a little different?
I know that's not gonna suit everyone but for those that are retired it may work...

That makes four - Toora, Tooradin, Jindivick and Briagalong in Gippsland (which is okay), so we better get some nominations north east, north, north west, west and south west of Melbourne.

Yes & No.  All planned VIC RTE's went ahead in 2021 except for Gellibrand, Briagalong, Meredith and Smeaton.  I've added them to a VIC RTE 20222 DRAFT Google Map (link below), except for Smeaton as this one had a chance of going pear-shaped. 

We've got Naracoorte and Edithburgh.

The GMap also has the NatRally and some of the SA RTE's.

Hi Darren, feel free to suggest some for a Sunday if you like, either day suits me..  :thumbs
Not sure why most RTE's seem to be on a Saturday, perhaps it's because sometimes we make it an overnighter?  :think1

Regardless, none of these have been locked in for a particular day as yet so I'm sure the organisers will take your comments on board...

I for one would like to see the Jindivick RTE held on a Sunday as the Jindi Caf does a mean roast...  :rockon

I'm sure we can include a Sunday or three into the 2022 calendar.

Yeah, that's about it. 

Reminds me to get back to the 2022 calendar, and nominate a few dates and locations.

Not sure if it's open but the Little Desert Hotel in Kiata might entice me to cross the border next year.

May be a future destination, but there's a couple of other events further west which will probably be enough for most Victorians, especially those a 100km or more east of Melbourne.

Hey BG, thanks for the reminder.  I've just been trying to progress arrangements to post in a specific RTE thread, but my inquiries so far that indicate that the Gellibrand River Hotel has closed - oh dear, note another one!! 

Would you like to check your booking, and / or perhaps send the contact no. you have, please?
