Title: The Biggenden Bash
Post by: roverfj1200 on July 04, 2015, 10:14:19 PM
The Biggenden Bash"
1st August returning on the 2nd August.
Fernvale to Biggenden (380km) Route is in planning.
Accommodation is a bit light on but the Pub has 3 doubles left $90 and the Van park 2 cabins $80 with the Motel unknown to me. Both are about 800m walk to the Pub.

This being in Queensland it would be good to see other states get rides organised for the same weekend.

See ya there.

Hi guys, missed me flip again..work 11 on 3 off so weekend no good for me.. :dash1:
Unsure which pub you're staying at as I have stayed at the Commercial, has motel rooms out back?
There is also the Grand Hotel Further south.
Biggenden to to Woolooga or the other way round is great.. :good2:
Also Gimpie via Widgee through to Woolooga....magic and plod free..almost :good2:
Paradise Dam from Biggedden is good too but a little tight but good surface.
Further north.. Gin Gin...Mt Perry...Eidsvold is brilliant but you'd need another day for that... :sorry:
Cheers Timbo.

Thanks Rover for organising another great FJ event. :good2:

We had fantastic weather and great company.

IMO These bikes are more than bits of metal. They to bring people together and remind us that life is meant to be lived.

Long live the mighty FJ :yahoo:

So true.
Computor shy, Graham & Jan dropped in yesterday and gave me a direct report on their first ever ride with the FJ crew. ...A very experienced motorcyclist that still races at the nearest circuit, he told me it`s the best weekend socially they have ever had!......ever!....Oh, he also grabbed all the 87 plastics and spares I had in the shed, except for Toyskie`s tank!
....Like other newly introduced people to this group, they are now out buying FJ bits everywhere! ...I hear the numbers made it a mini rally classification!    :drinks:

I remember reading about this thinking it'd probably be alright to go to, then totally forgot all about it. :sorry: Looks like a few turned up and I'm sure a good time was had by all.

As for the weather Troyskie, just a typical mid winters day in sunny Queensland, it got to 28 deg here the other day. :good2:
