Aussie GP

Anyone going to the GP? & if so, anyone coming via the Albury/Wodonga region?

1. There are a couple of us heading down from here (most likely departing on the Sat (early) anyone interested in joining up let me know... Also looking for accomadation on the Island - anyone know of any available?

2. Anyone planning on heading over the top - Via Mt Hotham - may want to use plan B - It is highly unlikely the road will be open due to the amount of snow up there... ( I will update here if there are any changes to the Mt Hotham road)

Cheers, G

Hi Graeme,

Am I going to the GP? Don’t know yet, here’s my story.

Original plan:
2 other guys and I are riding from Adelaide on a leisurely 2 day trip. After the GP the other 2 guys ride straight home to Adelaide and I continue east to Wollongong to visit family (via Omeo, Jindabyne, Canberra). Then I do a 2 or 3 day trip home, route not decided yet.

Revision 1:
One of the other guys has dropped out, so now it’s me and the other remaining guy. Same trip over but I change my plans to skip the Wollongong trip and return to Adelaide after the GP. No problem, I can do my Wollongong trip another time.

Possible revision 2:
The guy who was going with me may now not be able to, he will confirm in a couple of days. If he doesn’t go then I'm going East anyway. Day 1 will be the same (stop at Warrnambool) and day 2 will end somewhere around Torquay. Day 3 I ride right past Phillip Island on my nice little trip over to Wollongong, skipping the GP altogether.

The trip for me is all about just that, the trip. Although I would enjoy the GP if I was there with my mates, it’s not something I would do on my own.

So either way I’m going to enjoy my time off work.

Your second question is easier to answer – No.

Cheers

Yes I'm going but via Gippsland (from Central Coast NSW) not the Hume, staying over night in Eden. We aren't staying on the island (rip-off prices) I've booked a place in the Dandenongs. Go Stacey!
