Hi all, I will be joining the Camp Quality convoy on the 20th of November.
Check out the below link. It would be great if you could come along. It's a great cause as they help kids and families dealing with cancer.

Hope to see you there!
Rob [thumbsup]
Hey Rob,
If I wasn't moving house the day after I'd be there for sure.
If things are sorted by then I'll do my best to get there.

Pencilled in Rob..........

Ok people, so time for a bump for this thread....
We have only a couple of days to register for this excellent and worthy cause. Regardless of whether you can make it or not, I'm urging any who can to register / donate..
For those who can make it, if there is interest, we'll host a wee little mini south coast adventure post the ride.. You'll note that it concludes in Albion Park, not far from some nice twisty roads...
My thoughts are go on the organised ride, spend a little time at the family fun day, and then scoot off for a sneak review of the upcoming south coast ride, perhaps with a little southern highlands action thrown in..
The link to the info and registration forms are here:

To donate if you can't make it:

Add your name here for interest in the ride and we will work out the details...

A small note that the registrations will need to be posted, and they have to be there by last mail on the 4th..

Thanks for the reminder Goldie, looks like I'm going for a ride down to '60 Koona Street, Albion Park Rail' so I can hand deliver my registration.
If like in years past the bikes will assemble in the Westcliff Colliery general car park, where you can purchase something to drink and an egg 'n' bacon roll.

Silly bloody Brian........thought i was registering but donated by mistake.........then decided to register........... [bang]
Double yammy............but well worth the sting .... hahaha......!
As a lot of us know,........Rob/Ducmonrob has had a pretty rough couple of years with one of his kids....I can't even imagine the affect it would have on his family....gut wrenching to put it mildy..... But there is a light at the end of the tunnel i hear, our thoughts are with you mate.....
This is a worthy cause if anyone is thinking of coming on the ride or even donating.......I hope i can make it but registered anyway.......jump on board if you can......
BTW .............Rob ( not Wobbart BTW )........ you can't register online......? I donated (wrong link Brian u dickhead) but it won't let me register.......is that correct ? Print then post mate...? Snail mail...? Do i remember how to post a letter ?? ;D

Sorry mate, I left at Midday to register and I went and had a chat to Ducmonrob on my way back, so I just read this post, if you want I could pop down Monday arvo after work and register you, but I need your shirt size, address (receipt purpose) bike rego and your full name.
This will get you a 'T'-Shirt (obviously), plan route (with start times) a little orange sticker (that needs to be displayed to get into the event) and a discount card at beachstreet surf scene.
And that offer applies to anyone who want to go and cant make the postage deadline.
Mmick
Mmick.......Mmmmmmmmick.........sweetness........ ;D
Pwease...... [roll]
that'd be good - I'll PM you the details.
Appreciate it
OK, I have the rego forms filled in for Goldfish and Brian W and I will take them down to Albion Park Rail Monday after work, if their is anyone else that wants to do the Convoy for Kids you need to have a registration form in now.
I need;
Name;
Address;
Rego;
Shirt size;
Hope to see you there. [thumbsup]
Mmick
Ok, Goldie and Bwian,
You are now both paid up, and I have your shirts, sticker and info of the ride with me, I will see you both at the film night this Thursday and we can exchange money for goods then.

Quote from: monstermick58 on November 11, 2011, 03:39:32 AM

Mmick
this was my last sentence.
so..... ??? ??? ???
Mmick
Had not even been planned to date.
I suspect that the route will largely depend on what coffee is available en route.. I suspect the best coffee will be had at either Brian or my place!
What time are you blokes (Bwian and Nick) coming through town??
Mmick
Brian and I are leaving my place around 7.15am, heading from cambelltown way. I'd expect some time after 8am. Where should we meet?
Just checked the maps.. Coming in from m5 narellan road, then onto Appin road. Maps say 45 mins from my place, which I guessed is about right.
Brian, better make it 6.45 at my place so we can get our coffee fix and perhaps fuel before we depart....
Not that I can get out tomorrow but might I suggest, my internal GPS says you have a few options.
1. Yes you can get off at Narellan Road then use Appin road but it's a single lane road and can be dangerous.
2. Continue past Narellan Road turn off, head to Picton Road turn off, from there you can just head straight down "the coal road" past Mt Keira on onto Mt Ousley.
Or you can turn into Wilton after you get off at Picton road and go through Wilton gouge and head up into Appin.
Just my GPS thoughts.

Just my GPS thoughts.
Matty, may I have the right of reply??
Option 1; Off Narellan Rd onto Appin Rd will probably be the best one to use, it takes you straight into the metropolis of Appin, where I can meet up with my 'Convoy' mates let them refuel and escort them to the starting point.
Option 2; Does not put us anywhere near the starting point.
Option 3; Onto Wilton Rd is not too bad, lets you have a little run through 'Broughton Pass' (its not called Wilton gorge) and will bring you into Appin
By the by, all roads are single lane out here in the sticks.
Mmick
So, as usually, I'm only reading the instructions now...
It says we need to assemble at the colliery around 6.30am.
More likely to be getting there for 7am for the 7.45am briefing...
Looks like you better make it 6am Brian!
Oh and Mmick, I don't have a sticker in my pack? Hope they will let me in...
Sticker should not be a problem Nick as I will not be putting one on the green machine. Regos have been registered.
Mick what time you headding off from home? I will more than likely head off at 7am and possibly catch up with you lot in Appin?
Rob

Goldie, I was rather anal about making sure that both you and Brian had everything in your packs, I even gave one of you my instructions because it was one copy short, so all I can say is, you lost it.
I think the idea of the sticker is for the Marshals at the end point to see the sticker on your bike and let you in, I'm pretty sure that they wont have your rego details, anyway, cant find my sticker either :-\
I will probably be up there by 7:00am, oh by the way Goldie will you be able to carry a clutch cover back for Big to use to get his (rattley) bike registered?
Mmick
Ok, cant find my sticker!
But the upside is I just found 3 'T' shirts (from the Frasers sale) still in their packets. [thumbsup]
I'm taking my reciept with me, you guys should have yours by now I suggest you do same.
Mmick
Just found my sticker, so all good. Expected it to be a little bigger than what it was...
Yep can carrie a clutch cover for big. Will bring the bum bag. We'll see you there at 7.
Oh dear...............this would never have happened if it was nth of the border........ ;D
No need fro f.....n stickers ppl.......I have been known to bluff myself through anything....... [thumbsup]
Mm..mmmick.......you have organised this, so make it happen or your name will be mud........
This will be a litmus test for the next ride............a lot is riding here squire........ [roll]

Have a great day , good thing you guys are doing [thumbsup]
Catch up with you on the 4th Dec. for Ozmo South Coast ride.
Dez
Rob,......as you can see, both Des & Rob S are devastated about missing out on the ride, but maybe you can show them the link for donations mate........am sure they will help there....... [thumbsup]
Mmick, by my reckoning you have about 1/2 hour before Brian gets home and starts posting pics....
Thanks lad's
for a highly entertaining day, I am sure Bwian will post up some incriminating photo's as per usual.
It amazed me how many people stood on the side of the road and waved and clapped, even in the middle of nowhere along Appin/Bulli Rd people gathered just to see the convoy of bikes/trucks, truly amazing.
Mmick
Hungry Bwian?????

Brian p.s. hardly a drop of rain felt today........please take note, our two Newport nubiles, who were spotted cuddleing up together at Warriors today..... [thumbsup]
Ok,...... found a couple
A little embarrasing to be blatantly honest......you be the judge here please..
A certain OZMO member pulled me aside and asked if he could be in all of my photos.....plus any videos taken...... [roll]
Here we go.......sorry about the phone cover getting in the way

Thanks Mick, Nick and Bwian for a truly great day out on the bikes!
700 hundred bikes in attendance!
And all of those spectators watching the convoy was truly amazing!
A great cause and I hope more can join us next year.
Thanks Rob
PS, love the pics Bwian. [thumbsup]
Looks like you guys had a great day.
Really sorry to miss it, but moving/packing had to come first sorry.
Next year I'll be out with you for sure and we may even get some more OzMo folks there.
Looks like Mmick was the star of the day!
Could be an excellent photo montage in them...
