Australia Day Weekend
« on: January 10, 2014, 06:57:15 PM »
Well it is an annual pilgramage to Bungandore for me and some of my Ulyssian friends.
I will be in The A.C.T. from the 21st to the 27th.
My only organised ride is to Crookwell on the 25th
Would be great to meet up with some of the Local ST owners during my visit.
Will be camping at the Gun Club on Majura Road.

I will be around, and might go on the Crookwell ride on 25th, and can meet up outside that.  I know the gun clubs as used to go out the to range some years ago.  22nd and 27th are birthday and wedding anniversary type stuff.

My travel plans have just been thrown a curve ball :eek

The stay at Majura has been cancelled due to a few reasons.

I will still be in Canberra on tuesday staying with a friend, but won't be staying at the gun club.

Also at this stage the Crookwell ride is cancelled.

Would still like to catchup with some of you guys if only for coffee.
 
At this stage am planning on leaving Canberra area Friday.( Heading Who Knows Where.)
