Sydney to AFR

[Darn]

Hey guys, wondering how many from sydney are heading up, when we would leave and will we meet up with the central coast guys on the way through.
This might be too early to organise yet, but, lets get some ideas and options down.

[Cruisecontrol]

I will be leaving early Friday morning, meeting a mate on the coast and then straightlining it to Casino from there...

[rod185651]

Still trying to sort out time off and budget for shit I need for bike and money for trip etc, but plan on going up Friday and coming back Monday.
cheers Rod

[Cruisecontrol]

Probably get up your way around 7 or 8 and yeah that was pretty much the direction we were heading.

The more the merrier!:D[:p]

[hooligan]

I'm probably not going to fools this year (my first kid is due on the 9th of april) but I'm keen to go for a ride with some of you, at least part of the way to casino.
Friday sounds cool.

[Jockney Rebel]

[Jockney Rebel]

People pay a fortune for prawns and scallops, but it's pretty hard to beat fresh caught and cooked flatties

Just wondering if anyone can give me a rough idea, me and a couple of mates are looking at leaving earlyish on the Friday morning... 6am kinda thing, , any rough idea as to how long it takes to get there...

Thanks

[Jockney Rebel]

[Cruisecontrol]

We are aiming for about 7...

[Jockney Rebel]

[Zed14]

8 hrs comfortably.

[Ross_247]

[rod185651]

AS mentioned in the members area, due to work commitments and my boss assuming that the long week end I wanted off was Easter, I won't be making the AFR, so I look forward to catching up with you guys another time.
cheers Rod

[Jockney Rebel]

too bad rod......... pity
so whos actually going on friday morning up th F3 on a bike then ?apart from me

[Cruisecontrol]

We are still undecided about leaving Friday morning or Thursday night.
Since we are taking so much crap for the weekend another night in a tent is no biggie...
