I will take the tent but also wondering if there is a spare room. Having trouble with data at the back of the park at Wooli so may not be able to respond promptly.




Just checking in case someone has a sparebed/room for the 18th.


Are you still at Wooli?  I went there yesterday.  I'd have said g'day if I knew you were there.

Please add Rex and Debbie to the growing list of hungry Ozstocers having lunch. We will decide if we are staying as the event gets closer.

I'm in for Saturday.

Replaced water pump and a few hoses and other things.
Took it for a 4,000k ride to Brisvegas and back - no more fluid leaks.
Therefore I am quietly confident it should make the distance to Halls Gap.
See you there.
Mick S

We are not definite on this but there's a remote chance we could make the hotel for lunch.

It's all depending when I start work for the harvest. Will advise when I know either way.
Have been slaving away since Wednesday so it is a no go for us.

Hi all,

I've been a bit absent the recently, but hoping to make this ride.  Haven't thought about accom yet, but will have the hammock tucked in the back of a pannier as usual, so should find myself plenty of options...

Plus one (in bold), I've booked a cottage / unit at Grampians View Cottages and Units for Saturday night.  Probably will not make the RTE for lunch, but will see youse all for an evening meal - hopefully at the same venue, Halls Gap Hotel.

What are the plans for the evening meal for those staying over? Could a bbq at the CV park be an option?🤓

There is a reasonable Camp Kitchen, but if the weather is crook, it's pretty exposed.
Pizza and wine in someone's cabin as plan "B" perhaps?

This tech above me.  Michael,  note the earlier post from Stinky Pete .  Failure to check back on the posts = multiple pizzas & bottles of wine   :grin

I thinking my chances of making in time are slim. I'm likely to stay another day/night here in Ballarat so I probably won't get there until Sunday late morning. Some might still be there, others I suspect I might be waving to as we pass.
If I don't make it, enjoy!

The bike says:



I'm going to go for a ride around the Grampians shortly so should be over 8000 by the time I return home.
