There's quite a few people interested, it should be great!!!!

So say we meet up in Geelong at 7am on the 28th. Any objections with this

I'm not extremely familiar with Geelong so I could use Sam's help, or anyone familar with Geelong where would be a good meeting place? There's a Bunnings with a big carpark towards the south-western side of town isn't there, would that be an ok place to meet, or where do you reckon?

Sounds like you're on the money girl. Bunnings-Waurn Ponds is as good a spot as any. Great timing at 7am too. People can decide how far they want to go. There's lots of godies down there. :mrgreen:

Let me know if anybody is coming down the night before and I may be able to help out. Sorry no spa. I'm not into all that kinky stuff.

I may be up for a bed Sammy as its almost a 2 hour drive to the start point :shock:

Count me in . . .

Here in Ballarat I'm just under an hour away from the start point, and I have space for a couple of bodies to crash the night before if that is helpful for anyone from the other side of the Metropolis . . . PM me if you would like to take me up on the offer . . .

Has the black car quota been filled?
I'll be in this, for sure.
The GOR is in excellent condition at the moment.
Have been doing early sunday morning runs on the gixxer for a while now and the road surface is fantastic.
Not to hijack anything but when all the lads on bikes catch up for a ride, we meet at the BP across from Deakin Uni (next to the Waurn-Ponds Motel). High octane fuel is available there (essential for bikes) and the food they serve is awesome. Where else can you get a deep fried hamburger in batter?? :mrgreen:

Ok, ok. I have an ulterior motive. I am suffering deep fried hamburger in batter withdrawal symptoms. :mrgreen:

SERIOUS SUGGESTION
There is an alternative (read exciting) route to Lorne that has stuff all holiday traffic and some serious curves/bends (with stuff all run-off :shock:

). From Geelong - Moriac - past Wurdiboluc reservoir - turn left to Bambra - stop at deans marsh for a smoke - through Benwerrin (watch out for the guy in a blue uniform and hair dryer on the looooooong straight beforehand :shock:

) and then you are in curve city.

Just a suggestion......
In any case, it will be ace to meet all of you.
BTW I'm in hoppers and have a pool and a spa.........
In a very delightful shade of algae green :mrgreen:

Bring a wetsuit and breathing apparatus
(Believe me, on hot days like this, I curse my laziness) :oops:
