No need to worry about HWP's either as a good plan won't bring you to their attention.
Enjoy yourself. There are plenty of knowledgable people there with plenty of collective miles under their helmets.

Diesel I'm not worried about HWP's, aware of them yes i am.
Not having to surrender $$$ or license points for 15 yrs or so, I think I good planning ability, but as this is my first FarRide I had to think about a timeframe to arrive at Mallacoota opposed to my normal carefree 'hit the road see where I end up' attitude. Leaving an hour earlier is part of my plan and should be part of other ppl's, for those unexpected things that can delay a journey..
everyone needs a good plan and should listen/ read from others experiences ,,, it all helps in the getting "there" safely, and home, to plan the next FarRide..
