Ok peoples a few more details. 

Destination: Alpha, QLD.
Time arrival: 11:30 - 12:00.
Meeting Location:  Alpha Hotel Motel, 33 Shakespeare Street, Alpha. 

I have spoken with Rav the owner and he said he will do something for us all and has accommodation for those that want to stay overnight.  The local reports are food isn't bad so here's hoping we can confirm this. 

More details as they come forward, but it's time to start planning.

Being somewhat of a free agent these days, I reckon I'm good to go for this one. Now, which bike to ride?

So if I say I am coming here is that the same as registering or do I have to do something else?

Hop you will have to register through Ridemaster which can be found here buddy as it has gone live today:

It will send you an email and then you follow the bouncing ball. 

I've just done it and it's painless.

Just an observation- on the registration page it says registrations close 23rd May.  Surely that should be the 15th (or more traditionally, the 17th) that is, before the event rather than after it.

Thanks for registering guys cause I don't have to bring my 'special friends' now to make me look like I know people.

I have started a registration sheet with details as everybody registered because Taff has set it up that I get your details including emergency contacts in case something happens, but we don't want to use them hopefully.

Boggles I think the date is an anomaly and it somebody turns up late I'm sure Rav will feed them if he's open.

Hope everybody enjoys the ride and I'm throwing out a little challenge to make the longest words you can with the first letter of town names as part of your planning and I'll see what I can work out as a prize.

Keep the rubber down and hope we have a few turn up. We're booked for 15-20 so we still have some room and they have more food available than that.

OK peoples of the LD persuasion thinking of venturing into sunny central western QLD in a little over a week, just a couple of things to consider. 

When you're planning your distances please make sure you have time planned to be at the luncheon location between 11:30am - 12pm.  Have your start docket with a time on it within 24hrs for your registration and what your plan is for the distance you sign up with.  If you are completing the ride at lunch I will also need to record total km ridden please. 

There is a website that is handy for planning is called QLD Traffic which gives you a heads up on roadworks and other possible delays.
https://qldtraffic.qld.gov.au/ There are some slower zones around the target location on the Capricorn Hwy so depending on which way you are coming to meet up with us.

I now have three friends for lunch so we still have room at the table so don't be scared we won't bite, unless you want. ;D
