Two Day Nav Ride August 17th & 18th 2013

This is not an organised ride, it’s a map sharing exercise that is free. I am going on another two day navigation ride this one a little over 600km starting and finishing in Wauchope 20 mins west of Port Macquarie. Overnight stay is at Nambucca Heads.
Navigation means it’s a full GPS ride, yes if you want to come must have your own GPS. You need a GPS because there is no cornerman, no sweeps etc. The route can be loaded on your GPS at the Brecken Ridge Farm Stay, Brecken Ridge have accommodation for 40+ riders and have been used by Old Bull Trailriders many a time before and is a great place and cars can be parked there all weekend. They have limited cabins and bunk house style accommodation. To book your accommodation go to their web site check it out http://www.breckenridgefarm.com.au and speak with Barry or Shirl (02) 6585 2303

GPS’s will only be loaded at Brecken Ridge Friday night the 16th of August between 6pm and 9pm, you must be there at 9pm for the riders briefing (no GPSs will be loaded Saturday morning I will be long gone) the route I believe will be suitable for all bikes if ridden to the conditions but that’s your choice when you get to all if any obstacles. This is not an organised ride, it’s a map sharing exercise same as getting a map from the NRMA or whoever you can follow it if you want, that’s your choice when you get to all if any obstacles. The route I am planning to ride has plenty to see, and will be a cracker if you choose to follow it like a map. This rides overnight stay will be at the Nambucca Resort, Nambucca. They have offered us a special deal this weekend. We can just about have the whole place to our self it is on the river so bike security wont be a problem. It has a fully licensed restaurant and Melanie said we can set up the lap top in the restaurant she will give us what ever table we need for Saturday night GPS loading. It will be $80 per room that allows 2 people and a extra person will be $18 there after. They can do a bay Marie style breakfast on sunday morning let her know when your booking. For bookings check out http://www.thenambuccamotel.com.au/index.html

The ride will be slightly shorter than the previous rides as we have lost the benefit of daylight savings. The ride has been advertised elsewhere and we have had a fair amount of media around the Nav rides so it may fill faster than before I recommend you get your name down ASAP as I don’t want anyone missing out. You need a 280km minimum fuel range just in case (remember a fuel bladder or the likes can be used to extend your range) and must have your own GPS that can have a map loaded on it. No 280km fuel range, no GPS, no ride. There is no support vehicle, no cornermen, no sweeps. People will be required to ride in at least pairs for safety sake. No solo riders this time, I will not be looking for or worrying about someone missing on their own. This time at least pairs or more so they would know if their buddy is missing or down it’s the only thing I ask. This is not a race or a show of how big you think your dick is it’s not anything, just me riding and sharing a map as such, my map or where I am going finishes in Wauchope on the afternoon of the 18th. Numbers will be limited I am offering you a route (like a map) and recommendations (like someone asking out a car window) as to distances between fuel and accommodation etc. Fuel distances later

Numbers will be limited if required
