Hey Timbo, About what time Saturday morning do you reckon the ride will kick off, also is there a route planned yet or is that a secret until that morning.

Still contemplating whether to book a room for Saturday night( if still available )or ride home after the ride.

Okay Okay, I`ll fess up. It really was a mystery cause we couldn`t make up our minds. (you know what it`s like....all those lolly jars ...but ya get a sore arse if ya try to bring them all home!). Looks like we got a cross between a figure 8 and a kidney shaped plan hanging off the plateau. I`ll post a mud map but here`s a bit of what you`ll see: http://www.scenicdrivesofaustralia.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6&Itemid=7
Debate on start time with Timbo went from 8.30am to 9.30am to allow for the Honeymooners & those not staying Friday night like you, XRay, Klavdy, Stainsey & Horse. (What time suits you?) Weather forecast is absolutely perfect esp cause it`s getting some light rain now to green everything up.

 That's the only thing I found Tony was the cheap room rate was for 2 nights minimum, so I had to book Fri night as well, was only staying Sat night. But that's ok, had some days in lieu work wanted me to take so I have Friday off now, head up Friday arvo, woohoo!

What are the numbers for this weekend Tim?

Numbers are increasing at a staggering rate  :good2: and are now in single numbers... :empathy2: but I might add is a great improvement on zero.... :dash2:
From the FJR site we have Harold and myself both with pillions that are staying Fri and Sat night. One other maybe and another couple of possibles that are keen for the Sat ride. :unknown:
Accommodation should be still available for single nights in the lodge rooms at $35 a night, and at the end of the day there's the other caravan park if they won't come to the party for a single night. :blum1:
Cheers.
Life's been good to me so far....

Ok, me and the missus will be there early Saturday morning, where would be the best place to meet. plan to get there about 8.00am, might grab some brekky somewhere first before the ride.

Okay, we have had a major coup for our muster Luncheon.  :yahoo: We have secured our own private terrace with seating for 12 at an original Irish Pub (Patrick`s Irish Steakhouse at Tranquil Park)....But there`s more....we not only got Kilkenny on tap but beers starting from $3.80. Light meals to gourmet starting from less than $12...but that`s not what I`m excited about!  It`s this:-


That`s the view from our table!Normally reserved for a wedding but the bride`s skipped town and unlike the groom we`ve scored...and got their ceremonial terrace table!  :gamer:

And here`s the view:
