Just having a bit of a think about our national rally in particular the Rally Pin.

Just an idea, as the rally moves from state to state what about the host state has the state colour as the background on the rally pin or on the pin somewhere.  Just thinking don't know if its possible or practical or if anybody would like it.

As I said just a thought....

That's a good idea.  The Middleton one was a different colour to the Blackheath one, so obviously it's achievable to change the colour each year.
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

True that *starts blowing his own trumpet*

Actually... bring it on. It's already all organised.

I'm just waiting for you lot to show up.

Tasmania seems strangely silent and absent from the roll call

Hey Marcus, can you get 150 in the dinner venue?  This time last year we had 15 registrations and 50 turned up to Middelton.    To date you have 45 registrations, so working on the same ratio you'll have 150 OzSTOC riders at Ballarat.  :eek

Bring it on!   :clap

Yes! that was our last hurdle... but we found somewhere close (short walk) that can handle those numbers... We'll have the place to ourselves... reasonable prices (pub prices)

That would simply be amazing, i think i would need another bottle of that Red you made me drink at Middleton to celebrate that!

We are staying a week down there, taking in the rally then a couple of days sight seeing as well  :thumb already booked and paid for our bed
