Hello team, I've noticed a lot of "behind closed doors" chats about who's meeting up where and when to lead onto Tathra. Can we make official type meeting spots for the journey to Tathra. I do understand members are coming from all over, but a bit of uniformity will help any doubts. I would hate to see members ride there alone when there groups up the road a bit. And this should be relayed to fb aswell. Cheers gang.

Wardy's at Tallangatta on the Thursday night sounds like the optimal meeting spot for most coming in from the south and west areas...
Most of the crew coming from Sydney will be aiming straight for the Cooma meet-up, or travelling direct to Tathra via the coast (Princes H'way) road! (if you guys could all discuss & decide what time you'll be hitting Cooma [and LEAVING Cooma] on the Friday...that would be good, coz there always seems to be a little bit of confusion about the optimal time to be there!?!)

Although I'm a professional navigator, I couldn't find my own arse if I used both hands!
So I'll be following whoever looks like they know where they're going!

Batfink..... You Rod and Corbin are swinging past my place I believe. I'm in Sunshine, which is on the way. Coffee and a freshen up and Breaky if you want. Then off to Tallangatta the scenic way.

Bazman..... Wardy would be the best person to get confirmation of an ETA at Cooma on the Friday. That's his backyard.

Re-edited in red Sorry Batfink, Initially done on my phone in the dark! :
Corbin's planning on meeting S.A. blokes at Glenrowan pub Thurs for lunch.I'm gonna try and make that too
My guess for Cooma is get away from Tallangatta @9am. That Will put us in Cooma @1pm(easy). Suggest we plan to leave Cooma@ 2:30pm. This gives time for lunch, and Allow time forSydney and Canberrapeople to arrive, and extra rooting around. Sound fair??? 2:30pm leave Cooma?
Does that make more sense??
I don't want a pickle . . .

I'm still bobbing up and down on this ship and they can't get another captain to relieve me. Fingers crossed! But I also have an obligation to teach at the maritime TAFE in Lakes Entrance when I do get home. If that's the case then I will leave for Tathra from Lakes via Eden, Merimbula etc.
I will have to fit in as best I can but don't include me in the planning in case I have to get there on my own. I should get an idea in the next week or two?
Really looking forward to this!
Rob

Mrs Max and I are going to be stuck in the Landcruiser mate. I wont be able to get back on the Busa until some time late January at this stage. We usually all meet at Cooma and head to Tathra in a largish group. As we'll have the Landcruiser we'll be happy to carry packs, bags etc in the car to lighten the bikes loads so you can enjoy your ride down unteathered.
Just a thought.
Max
Good weather, good woman, good road, good bike, good-bye!!
