    All,

    Any interest in a lunch run to Tarago in mid-October, say Saturday 17? 

    I'm only new to the Forum, and HD's for that matter, but it be good to meet y'all. And to talk bikes over a beer.

    Plan could be to meet at Blamey Square at the Defence Russell Offices (Google it, there is bike parking in front of the grass) at 1115 for 1130, and then head out via Qbn-Bungendore-Tarago.

    Thoughts or alternative ideas welcome.

    ATTN moderators  -- apologies for not using the right template. Can't do it via an iPhone. Will do so next time as it makes sense to follow protocols.

    In theory, it's my weekend off. But I don't get weekends off, so I'll see. Need to do more riding, less commuting :/

    Evidently my ability to pick a day for a ride that works for most people pretty much aligns with my ability to pick lotto numbers. Not so flash.

    Let's push it back to Saturday 21 November. That's a month after the HOG rally in Qbn, two weeks after the Snowy Ride, and a bit before most of us start getting the grog lined up for Christmas. If it works, it works, otherwise all good.

    Hi JFE

    I'm not going to be able to make this one, my nephew is turning 9 and we have been invited to a family outing / Birthday party at Questacon.

    Sorry about that, I hope we'll have other chances to catch up in the future.

    Cheers

    Guys, thanks for those that replied or seriously considered the ride but I will can it due to lack of interest.

    All good; I'm gonna go to the Sydney Motorcycle Show instead. See y'all around.

    Was a good idea. Syd bike show should be good. I'm going to an air show. Never been to one but there's gonna be all types of historic Air Force planes which should be pretty good. We should do an act catchup though one day

    Gee JFE, tough crowd to get out for a ride in your area.

    Better luck next time.

    Just a thought for the ACT area riders out there !!! Why dont you think about a day ride, or overnighter at Jindabyne when the Snowy Ride lll is happening in January, (see interstate ride section for dates and info)..

    If I was a hot chick who needed help with my Harley, I'd bet I would have had company on a lunch run. 

    But all good. Sometimes life gets in the way -- I will check out the Snowy thread.

    This is a bit short notice , but i cant help that.... A few guys my way asked me only yesterday... Anyway,, this Saturday 7th May, the Loaded Dog Rally is happening a Tarago .. We will be riding in on the Saturday afternoon, (lunch time).. A few drinks,, something to eat,, checkout the bikes , and whats happening at the rally, etc, etc.. Weather looks good for around the area... If you want an overnighter, you can camp at the Rally site.. We have booked in the pub ,, there may be rooms still available as most people camp at the rally .... If it suits you ,, see you there !!!!!!
