Our meeting today went well so thanks for all who showed and even for those who had to depart early. We seem to have figured out our route. Forget all previous plans.(Sorry Jim) For the Sydney riders: we will meet on Friday at Phesants nest Mobile service station at 6am to look at leaving by 7am. We will then ride to Captain Cook memorial at Lake Burley Griffin to meet up with the Canberra riders ETA 10am looking to leave at 11.30am. We will then travel down the Monaro Highway to Cooma, where we will be staying for the weekend (Friday and Saturday night). On Saturday we will let the fun begin with a trip to Jindabyne via the Alpine Way to Tom Groggin(Ha Ha) and then onto Khancoban then to Kiandra and from there back to Cooma. We will then depart Sunday for an easy ride the same route taken on the way down. Hopefully this way we will all be awake and focused for the fun windy road- the Alpine Way.
If you have any problems with this then you should have turned up today you lazy fu#@s. :D

you have'nt got them made up have you? Thats what this trip was all about today, the organization of the trip as well as the shirts and patches. what we all decided was to use the same picture but have a different slogan something like "Doin it the Alpine Way"? with the aussie streetfighters web address under it like the shirts we have now and to do the patches the same way. As for the accomadation we are lookin into that hopefully we will have something organized soon. Everybody had ample time to come on this ride and throw your 2 cents worth in, as every body knows it's just to hard to organize over the site. Rod we were thinking of you today and our condolences go out to you and the family.

All Good, as long as Weasel hasn't convinced you lot that sleeping on the side of the road is a good option for accomodation.

thats my job. does anyone know any good bike friendly places? we figured lots of bike groups would be through there so someone must know someone who has stayed at a decent place. i'll have a look tonight/tomorrow and get back to you all. we are still planning to have accomodation sorted by the 8th (or was it 12th?)

any suggestions welcomed. will have to work out payment. will definitely need a deposit by the date above. i don't have a proper credit card though so we'll have to either put it all in an account or someone else use their CC. in which case everyone HAS TO PAY THE DEPOSIT if they have put their name on the list.

Jim missed the meeting due to work commitments and I had to leave before the planning meeting commenced and our involvement has changed to being participants only. ;)
To make things less confusing and easier to organise, those wishing to be put on the list should now contact Pete (PT).

exact dates are up.

14th and 15th of november. leave friday morning, ride back sunday.
accomodation is in the works.

www.royalhotelcooma.com/

^^this place looks promising, but they reckon theres another group looking to book the same weekend and can only hold one.$25 a night is the price they gave me. chasing up a camping ground also but haven't heard back. will need either all the money in my account, or someone with a credit card to make the deposit.

details (including bank details emailed to those concerned) will be posted once the place is finalised.

Weaselman
01-09-2008, 05:44 PM
Hey jim ol son can you use your CC to book and we'll pay you back like the kincohban plan.

And for all those not in the know the staging area was changed from khancobain (or whatever the fuck the spelling) to cooma because cooma is a more centralized location and reduces the traveling time on the way down and back leaving all you people fresh for a solid day of flat out stupidity.

..erm that aint one of the the quotes i went for isit ? cos before i knew you were doing it ,i kinda got stuck into finding a place btw..did you get the e mail i sent you pete?
my cards maxed but i was gonna use my debit visa anyway ..for the deposit and sort the rest out later in one lump

pt
01-09-2008, 08:20 PM
i dunno jim? i havent got an email from ya yet...

i sent them an email yesterday and got the reply today. deposit shouldn't be too bad since it'll only be $25 a night for around 25 people. will post up the quote from the other place when i get it.


EDIT:

alright, just got another quote from the alpine hotel. $25 a head per night.
Lock up garage which the bloke reckons he can fit 30 bikes in.
Restaurant
Rooms will be the old residence which has 18 beds plus a few other rooms to make up the difference. the seperate room for kato and stelf is included in that at the same price.


they may book up though as there are heaps of bikes the week before apparently. no deposit required, but definite numbers needed.

let me know what you think. i'm leaning towards the alpine, but i want to hear what everyone thinks.

01-09-2008, 08:33 PM

perhaps something less ghey?

like the lead rider to have green electrical tape on the right upper arm
and the rear to have red tape

something less obvious

plus i would hate to have the shitty velcro of a safety vest ripping open while negotiating corners (something that i struggle with at the best of times!)

as for fuel, same here 200 is what i work on. top up at pheasants nest then at goulbourn or summat and we'll be sweet. i will be taking a little jerry for saturday cause consumption goes through the floor when cranking. should be sweet with that.

It's late notice, but i'm in. Rang the Alpine today and got a room (a single because I snore, fart and stink). Dunno if I can make the meet up at Pheasants Nest, but i'll be there Fri night regardless.
I wanted in on this since I first read about it, but work is a bit up and down so it's hard to say what's what until closer to the date.
Looking forward to it!!
