Along with three mates (inc Fish for those who have met him) I'm leaving on the 7th May and heading for FNQ via Alice Springs, and returning to Adelaide on the 31st May. See https://goo.gl/maps/B9uR4 and the attached photo for our proposed route. The red dots are our expected overnight stops. There's a fair chance we will have an opportunity to catch up with some OzSTOC friends on the way. PM me if you're keen for a catch-up, and I'll pass on some dates and contact details.

I might be able to use some accrued time to do a ride with you when you're here. There are some nice rides with good views, coffee spots and eateries along the way. :thumbs

Give us a yell when your up this way.. If I can swing some time off I will... plenty of great rides up here as bikebear says :)

Do you have proposed dates for when you'll be in Townsville?

Our FNQ trip will be a great opportunity to meet up with some of the far flung OzSTOC folk, and I've sent of some PMs with a more detailed itinerary and my phone number. Just 4-5 weeks after getting home from Toowoomba, I'll be on the road again on my next great adventure, and the friendship and generosity of the OzSTOC family never ceases to inspire me.

There is a FarRide at the end of May in Eungella, which does not quite fit in with your plan. I am at Urunga as well, so in between Omeo overnighter and getting the Eungella ride in may be able to cross paths somewhere. I haven't even planned getting to and from Toowoomba yet, so a bit early to plan that far ahead :crazy

Hi Saaz,
For info, here's our complete itinerary. We expect to stick fairly closely to the plan, because two of our party are due back at work within hours of our return. The objective was always to spend as much time as possible in FNQ and then bolt for home, and the trip completes a circumnavigation of Oz for two of our group when we reach Rockhampton. See you in a couple of weeks.
Cheers
Pete
