    I'm keen to get a start on organising a western ride, i'm thinking october or early november would be best before the heat out there gets unbareable.....thought we could start by stating what dates we cant make it ....and the prefered destination, Miles or Chinchilla.

    For me the 15th oct is out unless i can change my plans within the next few days. Have to put Marg on a plane around that time and need to book, can do it on the 17th if i know soon.  I'm fine with any destination or different months/dates. 

    I'm trying to work in a few rides etc with my brother who wont have any spare weekends soon.

    Back to Hellbourne Jilli.

    Not sure of dates at the moment with having to sell our house and all. This month is off the cards for me as is the 12th Nov. If I can't make this one I'd like to think there could be another overnighter, ride or whatever but with Xmas creeping up quickly who knows.

    Description of ride:

    Chinchilla  ( or maybe Miles )                                                                               .

    Date:

    5th November 2011

    Destination: Club Hotel Chinchilla  ( pending )
    Route: (incl meeting points/times)

    Optional

    Who's coming:  

     

     

     

    Route option 1:

     

    Route option 2:  Rob n Marg,

     

    Route option 3:

     

    Maybe's :  Moffy n Cas,

     

     

     

    I'll explain the route options.....some may want to extend the ride out and ride some different roads, some may not, straight out the warrego would be easiest for most but would probly double my trip time wise, another option is meet at caboolture and the shortest route from there is via yarraman, cooyar, dalby....another option is via gympie, murgon, kingaroy etc, which is shortest for me but probly doubles the trip for others, i do realise we may have to work in with Madonna but not sure and can always have 2 groups and meet there or along the road somewhere, so if ya keen on this one speak now with prefered route option, it can be changed at any stage, mainly looking for opinions at this point so dont stress to much lol,    So.... option 1 = warrego out, shortest way home....option 2 = from caboolture through the middle and shortest way home....option 3 = gympie, murgon etc and shortest way home.

    So basically i'm just throwing a few options into the hat....what we need is someone from brissie area to jump in and organise meeting points etc for the southerly folk and us northerly folk, like myself and C, can either join the crew for the whole trip or meet along the road or at ground zero .....should be all clear and easy when we know which route most prefer.

    Ok....ive had a rethink and maybe, just maybe, come to my senses.....no doubt the best option is via the warrego, late start, meet somewhere about 10 - 10:30am, so i can leave after sun up.... have lunch and pick up jilli and madonna at toowoomba.....what we need now is for someone to jump in and take over, i dont know the ipswich and toowoomba area's very well, are you up to it Jilli ???

    STOP PRESS !!!!   Dont book a room just yet, we may end up going to condamine if everyone is agreeable and rooms are available, it's only 30 minutes further but well worth it, its not flash and not crowded but its great, will sus it out while ya's think about it.

    Yeah i know, i'm like an old woman.....its my femine side coming out

    Condamine pub has only 3 rooms left, $99 for a double.

    Condamine van park across the road have no bookings as yet, cabins sleep up to 4, mostly single beds but there are some doubles, $89 for first 2 ppl, $11 per person after that,  thats about $28 per person per cabin on a share bassis.  They are holding the cabins for us even though i didnt ask them too, told them i was just making an enquiry.

    The pub usually have entertainment on a saturday night, it's a fantastic place but without all the bells and whistles of the bigger towns, i highly recommend it,  it wont disappoint.  We would still go via chinchilla, would be a better ride.

    So......any objections to Condamine ????

    I'm a maybe Rob. Really not sure what's happening week to week at the moment with selling the house.

    I've started stockpiling these just incase C decides to come as well. Figure out how to get them there later.
