Winston - this is taken dirextly from the FarRiders' Website:
Destination : Kalbarri Motor Hotel, WA
Date : Saturday, 20 October 2012
Time : 11:00am to 11:30am AWST
This is the time to get there, aim for 11:00am.No checkins will be allowed prior to the checkpoint opening at 11:00am.
The checkin time window closes at 11:30amNo starting docket with a time earlier than 11:30am Friday, 19 October 2012 will be acceptedIt is fairly self explanatory - but there are a few ways to accomplish this.....
a) ride say, a 500km loop to back home on Friday AFTER 11.31am - get home and sleep till 5.00am - then ride another 500km loop to Kalbarri, arriving 11.01-11.29am for check-in;
b) ride some kms to get to Kalbarri by check-in, have lunch, then ride the other kms (totalling 1,000km) after lunch within a 24hr bracket to complete your ride and be accredited.
Remember to log on to FarRiders.com to complete your 'paperwork' and be accredited upon getting home again.
This rides are not meant to be easy peasy - but make you consider and execute a plan, and get a fair deal of pleasure from what you have just accomplished.
Nice lunch with good people is another bonus to make this a great experience.
Remember 2 things:
1. Speeding to make up lost time (or any other reason) is NOT TOLERATED.
2. Fatigue can kill. If you can't make it for various reasons and have to pull the pin - you are congratulated for doing so and held in even higher regard in respect of your decision.
The most important thing is to make it home safely so that you can ride again!
Good luck with your plan Winston. Keep us informed.
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Diesel
