Hey Murph, next Saturday is the 19th. Assuming this ride in on Saturday not Friday?
Hi Murph. Count me in please. I will be there this time!
Am likely riding out of the Letter A on Sunday, 8.30am, ready to ride. Grade 3.
PM me if keen.

I think 50:1 is fine but I’m certainly no expert.
mototrans wrote:how many fuel stops..? The tar sections.. are they main roads? Need to sort the logistics or riding a registered two banger with indicators removed..Mototrans, I did this ride last year on my 300. No indicators. Licence plate only. Did not encounter any problems in that respect.
I think I took 450 mls of oil which was plenty. We did 300 kms all up and from memory the max fuel I put in at each fuel stop (there were 4 or 5) was 6 litres. I’m sure some stops were only 4 litres.
The only issue I had was struggling to keep up on the tar and dirt roads as I had my gearing set low and it was uncomfortable riding above 80 or 90 km/hr.
Murph, I’m out. My bike maintenance today did not go as planned and my bike’s not ready. Someone else, please take my spot. Cheers.
Husky, I’ll be staying at the pub as well for this one. Cheers.
Hey Murph, can you add me to the list please.
Cheers
HuskyBloke, can you add one more to the Reserves List please – “Sam”.
cheers
HuskyBloke,
Can you please add my mate, Johnboy to the Reserves List.
He’s a good mate of mine and Wally Boy’s and will be joining OBT once he gets in front of a computer.
Cheers
My vote is for the Pub. Stayed there plenty of times and its always been good.
