Chris, if you want to make the ride a bit more interesting come via the sunny mid Nth Coast, although then you'd have to travel up the Oxley Hwy :thumbs :thumbs :thumbs

Came up through Gingers creek a fortnight ago......wet, re-surfaced and not yet broomed off, a few lots of road works......not much fun at all, BUT still better than the Pathetic Hwy run the day before from Urunga down to Port.

I should be in that. I have heard about the Texas Hotel, and sounds good.  Have not organised anything about how to get there and staying etc etc so have to get onto that soon.  Two rides at least to fit in before then, and they are sort of organised (at the least the basics)  :think1

Since your route is 1684 kms you might as well do it in one shot and get your IBA SS1600.
Alternatively, the road from Narrabri to Bingara is a good sealed road, as is the one from Bingara to Delungra, saving a fair bit of travel.

UPDATE!

I have been Speaking with Vince Strang, the Owner of Vince Strang motorcycles, Who is the local Honda Dealer in Inverell, He wants to take anyone who is willing for a run out to Copeton dam for morning tea on Sunday morning.

Ride out time will be 9am from the Fossickers Rest Caravan Park, it take about 30-40 min to get out there, leaving us all plenty of time to get home afterwards for whoever is keen

I'll get a couple of FR10's under my belt before I tackle anything like an SS1600.  I've done a couple of days close to 1,000km, so I just need to make it formal by doing over 1,000 for an organized FarRide.  Thanks for the tip on the Narrabri to Delungra roads.  Mr Google does show them as sealed.

Vince is a Cousin of my Fathers (they actually went to school together i have found out). As for discounts have not even broached it, have found out they are happy to service all Honda's they have done quite a bit of work with the ST's so it is handy information to know.

Teela and  are going to ride down on Friday and stay with them, and we will more than likely ride up to Texas to meet up with everyone coming down on Saturday at this stage.

I'll get a couple of FR10's under my belt before I tackle anything like an SS1600.  I've done a couple of days close to 1,000km, so I just need to make it formal by doing over 1,000 for an organized FarRide.

The IBA SS1600 can be ridden by anyone at any time.  You're confusing the pre-requisite four FR10s before doing an FR12.
If you do an SS1600 you can then do an FR12 without ever having done an FR10.

Sorry to non-FarRiders about all that jargon.

Gordon from North West Ear Protection Products (Earmoulds) has been invited to attend this Overnight RTE, he won't be able to advise his confirmed availability until the 20th August......


If we could get some numbers of members interested in Earmoulds to be custom made for you at the event we maybe able to further entice his decision, and he needs to order supplies.


Earmoulds $70

Earmoulds with Air tube speakers $240

Earmoulds with Air tube speakers and Volume control $265

ALL less your OzSToc discount of 10%  :runyay


Gordon can also modify or re-seal your existing Earmoulds


A number of threads in the Forum if you wish to further research........



PM Pockey or myself so we can collate numbers  :thumbsup

I wont be able to attend the RTE this year as it conflicts with the Wall to Wall Ride for Rememberence ( www.walltowallride.com (http://www.walltowallride.com))
Tackleberry along with TC and myself will be there and maybe some more Ozstoc members but we'll see on the day.
If the date of the Inverell ride could be changed to a week later then I'd be able to attend both.  I think there would be a few Ozstoc members that would also attend both.
I've seen the videos but not been on the ride before, apparently it's quite a gathering.
I really enjoyed Inverell last year, have a good time.

Which way are you coming up ??

New England.......bit boring

Thunderbolts.......interesting, but a little rough in places

Oxley........Fantastic, but you have to do mostly Pacific to get to the start at Wauchope (This would be my choice).......cheap accom at Long Flat Pub, west of Wauchope, then nice run up the Oxley, Walcha, Uralla, Armidale, Bundarra and into Inverell by lunchtime.

Uralla has a few places to stay at. Thunderbolts is not that bad, as the good bits make up for the rougher bits by the way I weigh up good/bad (which may be a bit different to how others might judge it).  But then I have an ST1100 which can handle such things easily...A2Z and StGeorge can chime in on how they felt Thunderbolts was on the way back from Ebor.

Best bet is to do the loop and do the Oxley one way and Thunderbolts the other way.

"Add me to the list of those attending.   Unfortunately Fossikers was booked out so I had to get into a motel down the road.  Please include me in the Lions feed which was great value last year.  I am not sure about the ride Sunday morning at this stage but will advise closer to the ride."

If you'd like to accompany me down to lunch at Texas with the rest of the gang - be at the Beaudesert Maccas 0815 for a 0830 ride out. Time for a quick coffee.

Be fuelled up and ready to ride by this time too, as we cannot hang around and wait.

Looking forward to this one.      :thumbs

Diesel, a more interesting road in my opinion is to go to Stanthorpe then across to Texas. There are some 25Km/h corners on that road. Also watch for coppers with their revenue books near the dam on road to Boonah.

Great stuff thanks mate. I was in for your suggestion - only it adds 40 mins to the trip which I don't really have. But I have locked it in for as soon as opportunity presents itself.

It's 12 km further to go down to the Stanthorpe turn-off.  The advantage I see is it avoids that horrible boring Cunningham Highway west of Warwick.  I guess I'm just looking for something different.  Not sure how they arrive at 40 minutes extra.  I think I can do 12 km in less that 40 minutes on country roads.

Steveo is right about the Coppers in that dam area.  The road has been rebuilt to a much higher standard that the old twisty road, and then of course, the speed limit lowered!   Wot thuh

I let Google Maps do my homework.....

http://goo.gl/maps/HqYBR (http://goo.gl/maps/HqYBR)

Vs

http://goo.gl/maps/Lsv6G (http://goo.gl/maps/Lsv6G)

Maybe it calculated the 110km/h speed limit into the equation.


And Steveo said there are 25km/h posted corners that route which would add to the greater time difference.

I agree with you and Google.  In fact the first map shows both routes as well as a highly unlikely run up through Pittworth.
There are no 110 kph roads in that area.
I have no problem with your going via the northern route.  It's certainly quicker.  The southern route rolls into Texas right to the pub, so I'd save a minute there.   :grin

So my plans for this ride:

Thursday:  Finish work and ride up to (or around) Tamworth for an overnighter (No idea where I'm staying yet)
Friday:       Leave Tamworth in time to get me to Vince Strang's bike shop in Inverell for 1:00pm for my 24,000 kms service
                 Collect the Pan and check into accommodation (find someone to have few beers with!)
Saturday:  Breakfast some in Inverell and then travel up to QLD to meet up with others for lunch.
Saturday:  Return to Inverell and enjoy fellow Ozstocers company
Sunday:    Have a good feed of breakfast and unfortunately ride straight back to sunny Sydney for work Monday morning.

I'll be testing my new seat, wind deflectors and a new APP I've downloaded from Swann Insurance which allows you to track your route, take photos and link them to your journey to share online and a few other features.  Can't wait.

If you'd like to accompany me down to lunch at Texas with the rest of the gang - be at the Beaudesert Maccas 0815 for a 0830 ride out. Time for a quick coffee.


Map - click here ([url]http://goo.gl/maps/oD5Xh[/url])

Be fuelled up and ready to ride by this time too, as we cannot hang around and wait.

Looking forward to this one.      :thumbs

Cheers, Diesel





NOTE THE TIME CHANGE.


If you are joining me at Maccas Beaudesert, I have revised the times and advanced the half an hour to allow for easier travelling, and a coffee stop at Warwick.


0830 ride out is the new time to leave. See you there around quarter past 8.


Cheers, Diesel

I'll join the fray and let any other Brisbane riders know Gadget Gary and I will be rolling through Aratula at 8:24 and stopping for coffee at the Warwick McCafe at 9:10.  You're welcome to tag along or catch Diesel's road train at Aratula at 9:13 if you'd like to sleep in a little longer and travel faster.   :grin

Robjob and I are leaving Brisbane Friday morning heading to Stanthorpe for lunch then onto Texas where we are staying at the Texas Hotel. If anyone is staying in Texas overnight and would like to catch up give Rob or myself a call and we can catch up for dinner and a couple of drinks. It will be the first time back on the bike after our last overnight RTE that turned out to be a very expensive weekend. Let's hope and pray Friday 13th is good to us.  Looking forward to catching up with everyone at the Stockman Hotel for lunch on Saturday.

OK, here's one for you.
If one turns left out of Maccas into Percy Street, how many blocks do you travel before turning left then right onto Wood St?
The reason I ask is, every time I do it, there's a "No Right Turn" sign at Wood St which is a pain (if you obey it).    :whistle

Rob and I are unable to attend this weekend.

So our cabin that has been paid for is now up for grabs.  Rob has paid the $80 so if someone is willing to take over our cabin then Lindsay the owner of Fossickers Rest will be happy to give us a refund.

Could you please let us know if you are interested either by personal message or give me a call on 0412 263 364.

I hope everyone has a ball and travel safe.

Weather update: in Pommie terms:

It's pissing it down; persistent rain, thunder and lightning so much so my cabin is shaking.
Hope it clears for tomorrow but the news forecasts further heavy showers on Sunday just
In time for the 600 Kms return trip.

Quite a big turnout at Texas.  We're all in Inverell now.  I have it on very good authority it's possible to get lost in Inverell!
Great ride down from Brissie.  Overcast there, but fine everywhere else.  Pleasantly cool here.  More reports later once the fun starts.

Home safe and sound, in the shower by 4:55 pm.

Thanks to Biggles for picking the route down to Inverell, great roads and good scenery. Weather turned out perfect.

Return journey was a collaborative effort with Dicko, Biggles, SToked and myself. 

Just over 1000 kms door to door.

Thanks to the organisers and participants for making it an awesome weekend. 

Good conversations, (Wish I could remember all your names) good cheers and good laughs, (especially at Streaks expense this morning)

Looking forward to the next one.

I got back today a bit after 7pm.  As the weather was so good I decided to keep going and get the 900kms over and done with to get home rather than stop off. Decided that I had to do the whole of the Putty Road, so went down the New England (Guyra looked quiet as all the rowdy residents were away on a bike trip eating curly fries I believe).  Did about 1800kms for the trip.  No rain at all when riding, only when on a pub veranda contemplating life!  I will download some pictures and put up a link, but watching Motogp is getting in the way.

Made it home just before midday today after a short wet trip back up the highway after staying in surfers overnight.
Started the trip with Diesel Paul Dicko Barry & Hilary in Beaudesert, then onto Texas to meet the rest of the posse.
The return journey from Inverell was essentially a game of tag with Barry & Hilary as they passed me while having breaks along the way.
I caught up with them in Tenterfield for a coffee & again in Casino to refuel as they headed for Kyogle while i continued out onto the highway at Byron & headed north.
It was great to meet some new faces & catch up with some  " old " ones .
The speech saturday night was "presidential" & somewhat "STirring"  in it's length - the contents of which i'm sure

Photo attached is at Raspberry Lookout on the Gwydir Highway of Gary, Biggles, Dicko coming home (Dicko off somewhere watering a tree). A great spot to stop and take a break.

BTW - I'm happy we injected a few dollars into the local Lions club. Those service organisations do a great job.

A few thank-you's must go out:-

To OzSTOC Members who came out and had a blast;
To Lions Club Members who provided the tucker and some off the cuff humour;
To Pockey and ST2UP for organising the lunch at Texas; and
To Barry Lane for generously supporting the Lions Club and picking up the final ceramic OzSTOC Mug by winning the charity auction.

Cheers, Diesel
