    New ride to replace AFR

    Ok, before I forget and another year goes by: after 12 years the penny has eventually dropped that April is a shit time of year for a get together! It all came around because Shayne Parker thought we should get together and we picked a date out of our arses. Turns out; a wrong date. Yet again we got pissed on in a big way, just like every year and this is the reason Casino died. So next year we need to pick another date after May and before October as this is the best riding time of the year North of Sydney (NFR is for the South). So anyone got any suggestions of a new name and date etc? Thought it could be fun if we throw it out there. Let me know.

    Currently it looks like late May would be a good time, after all the holidays around April and the start of May.

    If it was a weekend following a long weekend maybe less police will be on the road as they may have used up their hours policing the double demerit weekend?

    I think the end of May would be good, as you say Rod, very little policing as all the holidays are done. heading towards June and July its starting to get a bike cold and August is just a bugger with the winds.

    So I guess we aim for May 26th 2018. That gives everyone PLENTY of time to organise holidays and excuses.

    Sounds good. Will have the new toy for then.
    Ladies and Gentelmen, take my advise. "Pull down your pants and slide on the ice."

    Based on the fact that is is an AFR replacement and the weather is the factor once you get past Sydney, then I'd say anywhere North of Sydney. Broad I know, but suggestions are welcome.

    Maybe a bit further south than that. Port Macquarie area perhaps? Somewhere more mid way. I know we have done Walcha, but maybe someone in that area knows the surroundings a bit better and knows a hidden gem?
