Qld Overnighter to Biloela - 14 June 2008

[Dave]

If you decide on Mungungo and dont mind a little bit of dirt (not sure how much but i think about 20km between mungungo and many peaks) and want a good ride there is about 70km of big sweepers and nice windy road between many peaks and calliope. Very awesome ride just need to watch a couple of single lane bridges. I know it is a little longer and out of the way but if you wanted to take the coast road home this would suit you down to the ground.

Town ship of Monto is 10 minutes down the road, better selection of accommodation; the colonial inn has reasonable priced ensuite rooms and secures parking for the bikes. I was there a couple of years ago during a 1 in 100 year mice plague, the little fxxxers chewed through some wiring on the Busa and put holes in my jacket. Just thought you needed to know this piece of useless information.

sounds like to much fun to miss, should be able to last at least 40km.

Yeah we can do the Commercial as well as long as they do Steak (Tonys not what you would call adventurous when it comes to his food. It took me 3 years to get him to eat Butter Chicken).

AGFG site lists colonial inn rooms at $59-$69/night. Could be worth asking the question.

No bit to far for Rod

[MrsTony]

Hmmm I may have emailed the wrong place because this is the reply I got

THANK YOU FOR YOUR EMAIL.OUR RATES ARE $72 SINGLE,$82 DOUBLE AND $90 TWIN SHARE.WE DO NOT HAVE UNDER COVER PARKING BUT YOU MAYBE ABLE TO PARK SOME BIKES IN OUR SHED. REGARDS BARRY

I have a feeling that page on AGFG is out of date.

[MrsTony]

Ok Have we settled on the Commercial then?

[mechanx]

Have they got anywhere decent to stay in this shithole? Commercial sounds a bit dodgy.What about the hilton?The palms look nice , i think i'll stay there .
