    The tips and tricks route sheets were finished last night with me only launching the sheet chewing laminator once onto the back deck (POS!!) :laugh:
    They are different to the Nov 2012 ride in that they are only providing selective information on when you may want to zoom in etc. The Nov ride sheets meant that you could probably have completed the route without a GPS given the detail that was on the sheets. As everybody navigated without too many problems I figured a few tips will provide enough help for all you seasoned vets.

    I have two alternate routes if it rains hard and the two bigger creeks we have to cross are swollen. It doesn’t affect our route to much. For these to work if we get to much rain I will again ask that the first bikes don’t leave Mittagong before 7.30am (I know people will be excited :laugh: but it will give you all a chance to have a good breakfast and a coffee) I need to leave early with PTW to put a few safety markers out and check the first crossing. If the first crossing is up and we decide to bypass it you guys starting at 7.30 and later give PTW and I time to back track without fear of you nutters coming at us :P . If the first crossing is ok we can then get to the only other crossing that I am worried about, again check it out. If it’s up we can again get back out without oncoming traffic or continue to the first fuel stop and have breaky

    Thanks

    Got the racks made, (a bit rough but they will do) went with a brace at the last minute. I will need to remake the pannier frames to enable the use of the Wolfman strapping system but the bender I used was too big of a radius to be able to do it with these ones.

    Bags are packed and route loaded into the GPS. Cooranbong, Wattagans, St Albans, Wilberforce, Mulgoa, The Oaks, Buxton, Hill Top, Colo Vale and Mittagong.

    Go Pro and iPod on charge, ready to head out around 9.00am tomorrow for a leisurely trip down.

    What time are you going to be there TB?

    At least you will have a cruisy browny points gaining arvo with the better half, waiting for the rest of the nutbags to arrive in dribs & drabs :P

    You route looks the same as mine, except for the Watagans to Wisemans bit.

    Hi Jeffro, how many MB’s of SD card and Go Pro batteries would you take on a normal 2 dayer? I am thinking of taking the young fellas with me.
