Im keen for either of them. . Coffs sounds like something different.
+1 Casino.
I'll put my hand up for Coffs
Might be time for a poll lol
I like the 29th and 30th better. :-)
29th - 30th for me or I'll have to wait for next year.
I'll be back this year, fighter has rego again and I'm keen as. I think tiller rider will come along too.
ok after looking at the map if AFR is at casino I don't think I'll be able to make it, I need to see how things pan out work wise!?!
29th-30th /Casino
Was always the closest day to April 1st (April Fools Day) - Jarrod is right.
29th-30th March would be it, same dates as the UK AFR.
Sorry for my delayed reponse to this topic as I've totally missed it up and till now!
My bad. Oops, hahaha
So the Boss has spoken ! AFR will be held on Friday 28th to Sunday 30th March.Quote:

However if you have got another idea or a plan, make it public.
i like coffs as it has variety and offers a lot for nocturnal activities but where the fuck do you ride around coffs? or is it head north or south on the highway for an hour to get to the good roads?
Casino.
Lions Rd, Bruxner Hwy, several others.
Not sure what the towns like?
Only done the two Campsite/runway events there,
sometimes go though there on rides to Tenterfield in a morning.
# BUMP! #
Only 8 folk voted ?
I'm not able to vote as it seems my membership has lapsed.... Will sort that out shortly
Casino has some great roads around it for sure, but no idea how the town is.
Coffs can be a fun place to stay but not sure of good roads without needing to ride for a bit first. If that's the case I'll vote for Casino
I'm still voting for Dimboola
Scared of a little ride mate ? lolQuote:

Commercial Hotel at Kyogle has hotel rooms and motel(you get your own shitter and shower) rooms. It would probably have enough beds for all of us, but the pub only has a front bar, bistro and a back verandah. Not a lot of room. $35 to $45. There is another pub close by for the loud snorers. Either town is on the doorstep of great roads.
I put Coffs in the mix for two reasons..
1 I wouldn't mind a good day ride and I'm sure I can turn this into a 800k day hehe
2 thinking of the Sydney riders in particular Ben on the turbo bike
3 The roads...22.3 ks down the h/way you're at the foothills of waterfall way then up to Dorrigo , do the loop/triangle or take the back road up to Grafton down thru Nymboida maybe stop for a beer (busa club is staying there same w/end) to ebor and back, similar to 2012 run but different (i'm sure i can add ks) but back for an arvo seafood feed (prawns ..fastest sauce vehicle ever)
4 maybe Yella might want to ride with us this time
But anyway vote for a town and we'll make it happen..
Good on you Terry & Mark for doing the recon
With all the shit I have going on atm , and several trips up to queensland this year already planed I'm out on this ride I'm afraid.
Late mail.
1 : Macksville is half way between Syd and Briz.
2 : Excellent riding from both directions.
3 : We all get to meet up at Dorrrigo for the final twissties down waterfall way.Or we could stay at Dorrigo for once.
4 : Nambucca Hotel knows and respects us,and looks after bike security.
5 : "It began in Smackville"
6 : Casino has a de-commissioned runway, like how boring is that shit.
7 : Coffs only has 1 decent Pub with accom, think its called the wharf. Doesn't sleep many. All the other shit is boutique or backpacker.
I went through the Ebor > Nymboida road the other day, there's some remarkable bits of new hot mix and some very bad dirt sections that are close to if not by now tar, but generally not "too" bad other than the dirt bits.
Nymboida to Couts Crossing is as rough as ever though.
Are you planning on heading to AFR Davo ?
Only if your lacking horsepower.Quote:

Try heading out of town.
The Bruxner Hwy from Casino to Tenterfield is real entertaining
when you turn up the pace, as are several other local roads.
Yeah Bra. Ya welcome to stop at mine on ya way down and backQuote:

Does anyone want to make a decision, we will have to get some accomm organised soon. Does anyone know how many went last year?
I think the polls made/making the decision. And last year there was mid 20 odd folks
Some were more odd than others Mike. Ha ha haQuote:

Last pic is gold, Is that Huddo re-wiring the carbies? ..and what was the result from Boxer's 8000xzoom close up shot..lice or dandruff?
Right so it seems the dates for AFR are 28th - 30th March and going by the poll we're heading to Casino.
From Terry & Mark's recon it seems the Commercial pub in town is the place to go as they should have enough beds and lockable area for the bikes.
Am I missing something or are we good to go and start booking leave and rooms?? Whats the protocol here as I haven't been to an AFR since 09 and that was camping for the weekend. Does everyone just book their own room and rock up? What time do you usually meet up? Do a few peeps from Brissy meet up for a ride down?
Only 4.5 weeks to go, so get off your asses people.
shut up jules its not the last week yet....
