Can someone (Marcus?) check to see if Danny is awake? He could probably get there on his morning walk.

Dan can't make it
The following text message with Dan on the 17th
"I already told you like a million times I'm going to China, don't you listen to a single thing I say?"
"Well you do like bang on about stuff"
"why are we friends again?"
"so that's a no?"

But, she said it's too cold for the bike so we have to go in the car... :||||
Of course, I ended up in the poo for insisting we need to go on the bike as it's a bike RTE plus I'm also hanging out for a ride, yadda yadda yadda... :whistle
So, in the end we compromised...we're now going on the bike, unless the weather is crap...
So, after all that we now have:
- Bodø
- Helen & Michael
- Russell & Sue
- Nigel
- ppopeye (Chris maybe)
Moto GuzziMV Agusta Martin - maybe- BMW Doug - maybe

I too, find myself in a similar dilemma. For me anyway.
Long weekend means action at Rushworth.
Booked out Sunday for the RTE, and now its hey? What about the long weekend?
Can't,I say, already booked out?
My compromise is. Looking to ride to Rushy Sat morning, RTE as planned on Sunday then back and home on Monday.
Good plan? What could go wrong?
Nothing...............
If it all works might go up Friday arvo after work.
Post by: ppopeye on May 28, 2024, 06:52:37 PM
Casual observation.
If I ride the ST there can be a maximum of 4 STs at this RTE, so the chances are it will be less than that.

I didn't realise that weekend was a long weekend until Sue told me today...woops, a bit of bad planning there! |-i

It's also the reason I was confident I could make it so early on. I wasn't sure if it was nationwide or just an SA bank holiday though.
Post by: ruSTynutz on May 28, 2024, 08:11:33 PM
What a coincidence his birthday is on the exact same weekend as his old mum! :rofl
Oh, and it's also the start of the 2024 ski season...does that mean it may snow on the way to the RTE?

SA refers to it as the Monarch's Official Birthday.LOL clearly no confidence in his longevity, although it'll be a King for the next few generations

It is Melbourne

It is Melbournein June...Of course the weather will be crap.
To be fair I've been to a few Victorian RTEs and for the most part the weather has been hasn't bee that bad. Smythedale (2019) was a bit wet but certainly nothing like the wind of the Meningie RTE (2018) and rain of the Langhorne Creek RTE (2023).

It's not in Melbourne, it's at Sebastopol, around 120km west, a different climate altogether, usually not a much rain, but a few degrees cooler.
Maybe I should have checked the weather forecast before posting that. A shower or two is forecast for Ballarat on sunday. :fp
If it doesn't rain, it might snow.
Helen & I having a caravanning weekend at Daylesford, will drive the 45km (from Daylesford to Sebastopol) in the Jeep Grand Cherokee on Sunday, tested the seat and steering wheel heaters today, they're working fine.
Have messaged the Royal Mail Hotel, requested a table next to the log fire, will post an update when confirmed.

Bendigo forcast was 17 and fine. Not quite so good now.
When did BallarT not be wetter than the rest of the world. Its usually cold. True. But also drizzly and wet and cold.
I am riding at this point but we will see what the weather is closer to Sunday.

I was going to do that too but Sue decided to spend a couple of days with her daughter in Melbourne but as she's still coming to the RTE, (I'll pick her up on the way) I needed to make a decision early as to our mode of transport...
