Where:  South Australia - somewhere like Kingston, Robe or Beachport

When:   March - Diesel already told us that, but to be more precise Fri 20 to Sun 22 March

Why:     Although probably WA's turn that's too far, TAS too expensive, NT nobody there, then it comes to SA

Me too 👍, it would be like a tribute to STroppy. Capital Country Holiday Park Sutton is a great venue, although NSW, it’s only a 30 minute drive to ACT. Some nice quiet roads too.

Even though I chose Tamworth I think it is time to go back near the coast somewhere so even though I have voted Wollongong is another spot even though I have never been there

Not having been somewhere before makes a great reason to go for a ride...
Time to put in for leave now so I can ride there and back rather than a plane home  :rofl

And convince Phil we need to go for a ride.

WRT 2026, my preference is in the following order:
1. Tasmania - it is distilled and concentrated bike Nirvana and I'm really keen to see the Wall at Derwent Bridge, it should be pretty close to finished.
2. ACT - plenty of good roads to play on before and after and heaps to see in the Nation's Capital.

I very much enjoyed Toowoomba and a huge thank you to all involved in the organisation and it was great to catch up with so many. However I think I must be a cool weather rider - the 3 consecutive days 37 or over at the start of my ride just about did me in, so I'm hoping for somewhere not too hot or humid (I do understand this year's weather was definitely unseasonable and no one could have predicted it).
Cheers ... Mark

Realistically i think that it'll be in Vic or NSW ( Canberra cow paddock inclusive ).
While Toowoomba was great to catch up with everyone old and new, i do miss plotting a course to see unvisited places along the way to satisfy my wanderlust on the trip to the Rally destination.
If it was up to me it'd be in Tassy or the Vic/Nsw high country.
I do like the idea of a tribute to Terry as i have good memories of riding with him in those regions.

Might have to be inside, then!
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
