Hey Guys now that I'm on 2 wheels and keen to put some miles on the FBob.
How about a CQ members ride. Either Mackay, Emerald, Rocky? I guess where ever the most interest is. We can't let the SEQ members hog this section.
So who is in CQ and keen for a HDF members ride?
Interest so far...
I'm keen and distance doesn't bother me (my ass may not agree) but if there is a few hundred km's to get to the meet point we could make it an overnighter at an out of the way pub somewhere. mmm beer mmm rum.
Depending on which weekend I would be keen.
Bike at Emu Park. So anywhere near Rocky as a starting point is OK
Airlie Beach sounds good. Crusty I'm not kitted of Bike camping yet I need to get a bike swag as my double swag is almost as long as my bike.
I guess we need to make a date. Maybe some time in late Oct so Evilsim can make?
As for dates in late Oct. It's either Sat 16th or Sat 23rd or 30th. I would be keen on the 16th.
Me Me Me
Early or mid Oct would be cool, don't wanna let it run into travelling time to get to Edenhope 6th/7th Nov. Bout 3000k's to get down there for me anyway.
What mine you working at X? I'm out at Broadmeadows
Come on guys the date is set and now we need some number and book Saturday night accommodation…
CQ Members Ride @ Airlie Beach 16th Oct 2010

Anyone coming from Emerald I will meet with you guys at the Shell on Peak Downs Hwy at the Moranbah turn off. Either Sat morning or Friday if your keen on making it along weekend.

One suggestion was Magnums Backpackers which is right in the heart of the main street. Cheap and full of partying Backpackers…

If your not into budget backpacker style then there is always the Airlie Beach Hotel. Price varies on room type plus lock up parking. Right on the beach and 5 mins walk from the centre of Airlie.
