Excellent stuff Pete, put my name down. With each passing year your manshed day becomes more and more of a fixture on the FJ social calender and you and Alf do such a great job of it. No compromise on the route that time of the year, can't wait.
For anyone interested, Pete and Alf live in Bermagui, aka God's own country (and coast and roads and weather and beer and ......)



Friday arvo on the way to last manshed, just South of Pete and Alf's place.

Hi Pete

You can put me down as well.
I have purchased 4 x 117.5 and 4 x 120 (just in case) main jets, as well as 4 x 42.5 pilot jets, so we can fit these.
The only other thing I feel my bike is due for, is a rear swing arm pivot point and rear shock mounting point inspection.
I can get the Friday off work so a two night stay is assured but, I may be able to get the Thursday off as well.
A bed would be nice but I can bring my swag no problems.
Now all that is left, are some detailed directions on the back route you informed me about from Goulburn.

Book me in

Which days will you attend and what is your preferred route.
I have planed for a definite departure on the Friday but possibly Thursday, route via Braidwood and Kings Hwy.

There is a good possibility that It looks like Thursday morning and following you down, if I can keep up...
Unless you want to head out to Bathurst via Tarana and down thru Crookwell via Tuena and Binda to Goulburn but that might require another day to get down there but maybe that's another day.

Unfortunately, Thursday is a no go for me. I forgot, Dentist appointment.
So, it is an EARLY Friday morning departure for me.

Just doing the maths. Pencil me in as a maybe, if you still have mattress available. It's 1150km, big day  ut could do it as an Iron butt ride. Would be a late Friday arrival.

That's a big day through that country Mark (unless you're really good at early starts) Worth it though, it's a great weekend.

Early planning stages at the moment Noel. Haven't asked for time off work yet. Only put the idea to SWMBO tonight.

For a young bloke like you Mark, that's an easy ride. I came back from Armidale in 11 hours via the scenic route, it was a big day, 1,100kms in 11 hrs but a great ride.
   See you next month.

Hi Pete

There are a lot of things that have to fall into place before i am a definite. But I will give it a red hot go. Might even try to start out on the Thursday. Keen to go after my last few failed attempts to go on a decent ride. Lack of money, time and poor health (hurt my back - still coming good)  didnt help.
