Ok boys and girls. Here a chance to catch up with our Nth Qld members. November 25/26 2006 - we'll ride up for a night in 1770 and try and sort a pub for the night. If anyone has any suggestions or is familiar with the area speak up now.


"A completely sealed and tarred road reaches the Town of 1770 from Bundaberg, 120 kilometres to the south, with a partially sealed and tarred road access the town from Miriam Vale in the north."

If you're in for it pipe up now and if anyone klnows guys that may be interested but don't visit the site often (or miss stuff like this) let them know.

Northern Guys reply in here, SE guys reply in the SE QLD version of this topic.

Hi GX11,
Cool Map lol,
As you know the site I am building is not finished, but I have tourism meeting next week, if I can get an Idea on how many rooms are needed I try and get you a group discount, the roads into 1770 are great all sealed, accommodation in Agnes Water would be the go, Tavern close by, thou the Tree at 1770 on the waterfront is good value, but accommodation may be the problem, only 7km between Towns.

join up on my site Gold Coin Rewards should be on offer next month for discounts around 1770, Agnes Water, Gladstone.

Thanks for the Heads Up. [8D]

Have you seen the SE QLD version of this topic mate? There's a house on the beach up for grabs at $35 a head if you can get 7 people together. If I had known earlier I would have gone for it but i already booked.

02-11-2006, 07:16 PM
yer gix that is what that last is about, seeing how many have already booked and how many haven,t i'm not going to book it only to have to pay for the whole thing, when i can just crash in the back of my van.

There is a fair bit of interest from the Gladstone crowd so we'll have to come up with a decent meeting spot.

I'm wondering if we should be meeting out on the hiway or a big servo in town or something so that everyone can meet at one place ?

I was thinking 2pm , leave 2:30pm ?

That gives the guys that work sat morning just enough time and still get down to 1770 early enough ?

Caltex Benaraby ?

Caltex has heaps of parking area and seats etc to wait at and it's easy for northern travellers, gladstone , Calliope, Boyne , tannum etc etc ?

Comments ?

Stocky thats not a bad place to meet, although if we leave from somewhere in Gladstone ( i will be there on friday night ) it would look good with a group of bikes riding out of town, then stop at benaraby for a while for those that want to meet there and leave as you say at 2 - 2.30ish what do you recon

Stocky
06-11-2006, 05:23 PM
If you are in gladstone Fri night then yeh, for sure.

Maybe do a meet up at 2pm at the Mobile 24hr and be at Caltex by 2:30 ?
