OK so hopefully the title doesn't scare people off (I stole it).
I thought I would create a separate thread for the next big group ride. There was a lot of talk following the last one but there has been no action for a while and the time is fast approaching.
There were a number of suggestions floating around but the main one was that this was to be a Sunday run ... so we will start there.
Suggested dates were 25th July, 1st August, 8th August. Despite a few changes of direction the date with the least objections seems to have been Sunday 1st August ... sorry Paul, SWMBO will be riding pillion that day.
So at the moment I will run with that date, now as for location ... Hambo has just suggested the Putty in the track day thread - so I will run with that too.
No that I have all my ramblings out of the way, what do you think?
Sunday 1st August
Putty Road Loop
Oh, I just remembered ... will some have to carry fuel reserves?

That's pretty accurate info. I am not sure exactly how the 4v mob will go but surely at 147km they won't have to push too far  |

Unfortunately the 1st August is no good for me
Sadly I lost a good friend this week and we are skatering his ashes in the waves of Whale beach that day on a mass paddle out.

Sorry to hear that Dez, hopefully the seas are good for your paddle out. Of course if we have enough dissenters we may be able to switch dates |

Tentatively in. Betty I assume you are talking Colo -> Putty -> Broke -> Wollombi -> Old Road Loop? -> http://bit.ly/d3BkqLFYI 4Valvers, it's 120kms pump to pump from Colo Heights Ampol to Broke -> http://bit.ly/b7PrSb |

August 1st  K's sound fine I might just make it  But I should have a newly serviced bike by then so I might even push 160+ but then I did that one the way back from the last little Dez outing! |

i dont care if you have been a mechanic for 10 years doing something for a long time does not make you good at it, take my gf for an example shes been walking for 28 years and still manages to fall over all the time.

Incase you did not know - Halfway house is gone.
Who remembers the Oz Monster ride on that very day before it burnt to a crisp. I remember Matty and Tricolore getting complimentary jerry can fuel from the owner at the H/W House as there was none in the bowser. And Rob S did the ride with an open face helmet - You were game Rob and it was cold. We had lunch at blue tongue brewery to avoid Wollombi pub....memories...
