VIC RTE Suggestions 2024

(1/3) > >>

Bodø:
I guess it's about time to to get this rolling.  I've got a list of places I would like to check out but here's a few that may tempt a few croweaters over the border.


* Lake Wallace Hotel, Edenhopel
* Royal Hotel, Snake Valley
* Eureka Hotel, Rainbow
* No animals were hurt in making this list but I did steal some of Williamson's dots.  :nahnah

Don't think they're my dots, I've done a stock take and mine are all there.

Re. your suggestions, I'll refer them VORTEC (Victorian Organising Ride-To-Eat Committee).  Whilst I'm sure the venues at Edenhope and Rainbow would be fine destinations for an RTE, at both over 400km (for me), more km for those east of Melbourne, they're far too far for a day RTE, but may be okay for an overnighter RTE.

On the other hand the Royal Hotel, Snake Valley will be fine.  This will fit in nicely with the 2024 Royal Tour, which has been floated as a theme for the VIC RTE's for next year.

While these might be a good ride, Mildura (which would also entice a few of us) would be even further. It might be good for an overnight or long weekend though.

Yeah, a good destination, but at 550km plus for me and then 650km plus for some east of Melbourne.   Despite the ST's legendary ability as a longer distance tourer, these distances turn an RTE into a two or three nighter for some of us (who's abilities fall short of the bike's).   For those with a pillion it means four 300km plus days, something my pillion will not do these days

But let's see what the other Victorian's have to say.

Bodø:
I started suggesting Mildura for five or six years ago.  Balranald RTE's have always been good.  Should I create a similar thread in NSW?
