Righto chaps, confirmed booking at The Beatty Hotel, East Gresford, Thursday 8th......
Troyskie


I've done the same on the Thursday night, arranged accommodation and a dinner in Tumut for everyone travelling from Victoria.
Should be a great night and warm up to the Rally.

Strewth, that will be tight. Are you hosting the Tassie riders as well? Might need to extend the town.  :sarcastic:

G'day Mark, all that I can tell you at this stage is we are thinking around 11am. If we get there earlier we will find a coffee shop or bakery and
meet there. PM me your phone number and I will send you a text of the location. If we happen to get a parking spot close to the place, you will
see the bikes. Muswellbrook is not a big place and we will be along the main street.
Hope to see you there. Regards, Pete.

Guys.....also in Mudgee is the Wanderlight Motel (Best Western) which was pretty reasonable when Graham and I stayed on the way back from one of the rallys some years back. And right next door to the motel is the Court Hotel which is owned by a biking family and is also worth a visit if you feel thirsty.
We met the owners one afternoon after riding the Bylong in both directions just for the hell of it..... we had pulled up on the side of the road, considering riding the highway again when the pub owners pulled up and invited us to the pub....TOP people.
And as suggested, SOFALA is a must see. Another great pub too. This was us parked up next door to the Sofala pub back in 2009.



Cheers
Harvy

So are you and Peta going to make it to this years Rally?
Or is that pesky work going to get in the way.
Be great to catch up.

My accommodation is all sorted. Bunking in with Ray in a cabin at the caravan park. A bit of a walk at the end of the festivities might be a good thing.

G,day Fellas
Just popped over from the XS1100 site and noticed your rally is in my backyard
Any objections if I tag along for the day ride?

Jonesy. You are more than welcome. Maybe we could convert you to a proper bike while we are at. Lol
