I am organising with Nickj a 4 day 3 state adventure ride in April. The ride will start in Gunning NSW at the Telegraph Hotel Gunning Contact for the hotel is (02) 4845 1217
They have rooms at the moment so get on it and remember we are staying there on the Thursday night the 31st of March as we are leaving the next morning at 7.30am
Please organise your our accommodation at the Hotel or wherever you wish in Gunning if you are going.The trip will take us to such places as Omeo, Dargo, Swifts Creek, Corryong, Hotham Heights Village, Ensay, Davies Plain, Tom Groggin, Jindabyne, Old Adaminaby to name but a few locations. There is also the chance to ride up to the top of Blue Rag if you are game :laugh: The ride finishes in Gunning on the Monday the 4th afternoon, read afternoon whenever we get there no set time!
The plan is to camp every night once we leave Gunning depending where we are, that means we can ride and don’t end up wasting a couple of hours sitting it out because the next accommodation is to far away
Maybe we will stay somewhere one night but it’s not planned.
Required fuel range is 300kms plus to be safe, 350 is better. Please make sure you have the basics for your bike including a spark plug as there will be over 50 creek crossings. Kram basic means at least one tube ( it will be rocky in spots ) joiner link, and whatever you think you won’t want because getting you and your broken down bike out of the Vic high country would be a costly exercise 😆
The mapping is finished, Mickp has provided some of the route to Omeo and from Jindabyne to Gunning on the return. Middle sections will be run off route sheets not GPS. The route total Gunning to Gunning is 1352kms meaning we need to day 338kms a day or there a bouts. There is one 60 km bitumen section which is Googin to Jindabyne and is unavoidable. There will be small sections as we run in and out of towns. There will be longs hills, lots of creeks and an adventure I promise.

Steves mateAnd then when we get back
Kram, Moose, Nickj and Myself are continuing for another four days from Canberra, via forests and dirt tracks to Mittagnong, then we will take the proper Caves to Caves route we used for the birthday ride a few years ago. Once we come out at the bitumen at the top of the caves we we go left instead of down to the caves, back into the forest thru to the Oberon Rd using tracks from the Hampton ride this year. From there onto where we meet Mal5.1 and Donna on the start of the Camerons ride. Across into Sunny corner and work our way to Bathurst out thru Ophir then Long Point to Hillend pub. There to Sofala out thru the Turon river and the hard route with all the creek crossing to Capertee, Garden of stone, black fellows hand trail, mt Wilson, Mt Lagoon, Colo Heights, wheel barrow ridge, St Aburns, Kulnura, Yengo, Putty, Bulga, the Watagns. That’s the bail out for Kram and Moose and then home for everyone
If everyone can confirm if they are going please
