Downunder Rally 2012

[The General]

  Embroidered (Collector item, Rare, priceless) 2012 Australian Rally Polo shirts (white with Yamaha blue flashes) now include an EMBROIDED pic of a 93FJ on the sleeve at no extra charge. So it will be now on all Polo Shirts odered. (That mate from the Brisbane Wharf was in my area today  ). Total price only $59 (refer to earlier Downunder Rally Post)

The chance to order for (guaranteed) delivery at the Rally ends in the next hour    however attendees can order for a "maybe before" or a "Post" Rally Delivery    - just PM me.

When ya see how good they make Harvy look, you`ll all want one.  (esp the ladies)

Well sad to say, looks like I'm a no show

Today it all came to a head, 
I had to give in.

2 big jobs at work, rain, rain ,rain & more bloody rain, now floods 

Heaps of family issues to sort out, 

So I cancelled the room, there is now a empty spa room if some one wants it.

May be next year if we can make it a bit more central to everyone & away from the festive season, so its not so busy.

No prob Baldy - but ya wouldn`t have it by the Rally date. However I had originally ordered a spare in Large if ya want it, cause the first two orders (Me & Harvy) were that size. - Wouldn`t ya know it - except for the female orders, the last 6  were all Extra Large  (incl 2 late orders that I only just got squeezed in - thanks to a wharfie mate ) - guessin I`ll have to order more kenilworth steak for the barbie!! 

By the way all shirts are white with Yamaha blue on the collar and full length flash undar arms. Copyrights prevented us from any Yamaha Emblem (we snuck in FJ1100 & FJ1200 in their fonts) or Logo. - but shit they look good  Doug

Hi folks......I've been off the air for the past week, so catching up with what's what.
Baldy, X-Ray, I hope to be able to get off work early Friday arvo and will meet you guys at the Big Fish servo (Pumicestone Rd exit) if that's convenient.

On a disturbing note, I was speaking with Jill this morning on Skype - Klavdy is in ICU at Robina hospital in an induced coma... Seems some serious infection has set in, so I doubt we will be seeing him next weekend.

Ok, Internet has been off all day, finally got it back.

Baldy, Harvs, yep I'm taking Friday off so I can be at The Big Fish between 3-4 easy. (or whatever time)  My number is 38020972 or mobile 0407151019. Should be a good weekend, just finished putting on the new o ring for the filter housing to stop that leak, (which I should have done when I changed the oil.). Heres hoping the fork seals last the weekend, because I can't afford to get them done any time soon, bit of a weep, but should be ok as long as I don't pound them.

And what the heck happened to Klav?? I was going to ring him this weekend to see if he was coming, bloody hell.

  X-Ray, Baldy, Harvy - By the time I pick up the Shirts & load some groceries in the Bike esky  , I too will be at the Big fish around 3PM. 

Arnie picks up FJ2 at around 1.30PM from my place and will either join our "Convoy" or duck back to Noosa & return in the morning. Flips is doing an "iron Butt" from Sydney and will be probably later. The rest (incl fly-ins & honeymooners) are expected at the Homestead around 8am Saturday, all fueled up  for the Run up the Obi Obi Range. (They can leave their gear at Knotts cottage -FJ headquarters- if they haven`t got immediate access to their spa accom)   

Any Lost or late starters & lurkers can join us en-route anytime, the helmet phone 0417606496 should be operational.       Doug

I'm counting down the sleeps........

[Dazza57]

Good luck with the weather everyone, I'm still jealous I couldn't make it and have a WA member front up. Doug's offer of his 2nd bike for the run was nearly too good to be true, glad Arnie got the chance, saved him a long ride and more time off work. Make sure you all take lotsa pics and vids.

Cheers, Dazza

[Harvy]

I have added pics of the rally route proposed for Sat 11th........they are in the Gallery in my member area.












As always, changes may be made to allow for weather and other contingencies.

A booking has been made at Dayboro Pub for lunch on Sat 11th........Other stops can and will be taken as and when necessary!

Harvy

[X-Ray]

Nice Harvy. What do you reckon the overall distance is for the combined routes?

[Harvy]

Ray, its around the 400 km mark. If we are all fueled up on Friday evening, should be good to reach Kilcoy either on the outward run, or heading homeward, depending on which direction we do the run in. Re-fuel in Kilcoy.

Cheers
Harvy
