Route Information
Over on my website there are two pages. This link takes you to the page with the Roll Chart, Accommodation lists and BBQ list but nothing else. Only click this link if you want to see the route maps, GPS files and route information on the MAPS page.
As with last year there will be $10 gate fee for Black Forest Station.
Ride Etiquette/Safety
The runs to date have shown that small groups (2-4) of mates is best for the one day run. The same applies to the two day riders i.e. form smaller groups. As with previous runs there is no support for the one day riders. All Riders are expected to carry everything they need from food and water, first aid gear, tools, spares etc. Also there is limited cell phone coverage for most of the route. A sweep vehicle is not be officially organised but is somebody is willing please let me know. The same applies to a vehicle to carry luggage to Alex Holiday Park and back.
Ride Stickers
These will be available for all those who attempt the ride. They will cost $5 each. 50 have been ordered. First in first served at the BBQ on the Friday night.
Money
I will collect $10 Black Forest fee, $12 BBQ cost and sell you a $5 sticker (if you want one) all at the BBQ. If you stay at the Gladstone or Alex Holiday Park, please pay your accommodation moneies to them directly.
Calendars
Just so I have a rough idea of the number of riders please add you name to one of the calendars below if you intend to join the ride.
* ONE Day riders Calendar
* TWO Day riders Calendar
Final Word
There is no "entry fee", there is no registration, this is not an organised ride in the legal sense. This ride is simply a bunch of people following the same route at their own pace along publicly accessible tracks. I take no responsibility for any issues be they self inflicted or not. I will however endeavour to ensure that there are no right of passage issues along the route. You all need to ensure your bike its up to the task. There will not be a scrutineering or similar.
Be there or be square
Right feel free to use this thread to organise how you will get to Fairlie, accommodation etc.
Cheers R
