Chicken you want the other spot?

Chris further to your questions on the locked thread regarding the Wauchope ride. Wauchope is 21km from Port Macquarie. There is a ton of accomodation in Port and at that time of the year it wont cost you a bomb. There is also family accomodation at Breckenridge farm stay at Wauchope. That is were the rest of the crew will be staying. Have a look at the link..
http://www.breckenridgefarm.com.au/. It is about a 20 minute drive to Port.

[Mick DMember]

how’s this for a plan?
Friday morning, about 10 am,leave my place, ride through Bago onto Cowarra SF,then out to Jolly nose Lookout and the Queens Lake nature reserve then onto Bonny Hills Tavern for lunch. Return to Wauchope,Via Cowarra SF(different trails) returning to Wauchope around 2pm, for Check in at Breckenridge farm stay.About 80km all up Ride grade 2-3.Then to Wauchope RSL for Dinner and beers.

Saturday.Breakfast at the Farmstay. 120km+ loop lead by RiderX through Bago SF,Milligans road,Hardies Plains for lunch and refuel, up to Comboyne rock then to Swans crossing,returning to The Farmstay via Huntingdon for beers and BBQ.Ride grade 3-4. Cost Around $20 for fuel and lunch. More details regarding the night’s festivities as date comes closer.

Sunday Breakfast at The Farmstay again. Then a casual Dual sport ride out to Beechwood, up Pipeclay road to Kindee,top up fuel at Long Flat,through Tom’s Creek to Comboyne, A couple of laps of our private loop at my inlaws. Then onto Elands and Ellenborough Falls and return to Wauchope via fire trails and a couple of single trails. Back by 2pm to pack up and head for your homes. (Around 120 easy kms that will finish off what’s left of your tyre nicely.)

Who’s Keen??

Sounds AWESOME Mick! I’m deffo there and I’ll get to see Ellenborough Falls I’m going to be hurting though after not riding for so long.

TB, are you going back to Newy on Sunday or Blaxland? If you want you are welcome at mine on Sun to break the driving up for you

[Mick DMember]

You don’t have to do all three days,the Saturday will be the big one.If you are thinking about coming for just one ride I would recommend the Saturday Ride.

That statement was a general one,not specifically for you MOTO.
I knew you were coming for the 3 days,that’s why the Ellenborough Falls ride has been included.

[Mick DMember]

It would be good if every one got their names in early so I can organise and book the accomodation and catering for the Saturday ride.
Accomodation will be dorm style and costs $90 for two nights including Breakfasts.
