    As mentioned, I'm overseas until the 10th October. I would've been there for sure otherwise.

    I'm with China regarding the low attendance numbers. I don't expect hundreds, but at least thirty would be more respectable to make it worthwile.

    I'm relatively new to the forum, with my first outing at Lascelles ealier this year. It was absolutley great.

    Good friendly company, bikes to look at and talk to owners about them, enjoyable riding. Plenty of food and drink (I drink water) at the end of the day.

    Come on folks, make a booking and jump on the trusty steed for an enjoyable weekend on the Murray.

    Put a face to the keyboard name and see if it fits...........

    Yep China, same old regular blokes doing the runs, with the exception of a few. Yes very disappointed not to have more since its been well advertised for over a year.
    So 18 confirmed and maybe a few more will show up. 11500 members say and 18 confirmed, that is not even .2%. Yep POINT TWO OF A PERCENT. FFS.
    Oh well I will have fun.

    Sorry guys…..sadly being 3,500 kms away its too far of a stretch for me.

    I think its better to have a more manageable number like 18 than 30 riders.

    I wouldn't worry about what others are doing.….I'm sure you'll all have a great ride.

    Well, not all of us are fortunate to have secure or permanent fulltime employment where you can afford to take time off, or spend a weekend away from a very young family.  If I was in a better situation at the moment, I'd gladly jump on my bike and head over.  Sorry that i can't make it for this event, but at the moment all I could possibly manage to do is the odd day ride here and there.

    I hope to catch up with a few familiar faces and possibly meet a few new ones in the near future.

    For those who are attending, have a safe journey to and from Echuca, and have a great time with many like minded people.

    Wild Rose, Id suggest you go along, the mob of blokes that normally turn up are decent gents, I have taken my missus on a couple runs and the guys have all been good.

     

    I am playing baseball in the states and fly out on the 11th, cant be in two places

     

    of 11500+, if there was 100 active in the last 6 months, of them more than 10 posts, the 18 attending is pretty good, of them I dont recognise some names
