July 6, 13 and 20, are school holidays in South Aus. Very popular time for families to visit the Flinders Ranges so maybe scrub them.
Same for 28 September, 5th and 12th October but they may or may not be as busy.
I'd be keen earlier, 4th or 11th of May. I have a Yamaha S10 now so keen to try it out on a FarRode.

I'd be a starter on May 4.

Ah - in there interim period, I have been invited to a run out to Burra for the weekend; So, while the force may be with most, it won't be appearing in Blinman, at least for this crowd.

But note that May is the running favourite at the moment, there may be a run later in the month. The poll has a few more days left, so will see who else gets on it before calling a date.

But @Large would there be a May date to avoid?

Cheers

The only issue I can see with May on any other date other than the 4th, is I wouldn't be able to make it.....        

[ZigZag]

Taffey, I'm out for the 18th. Birthday celebrations. Keen for another date.

[Taffey]

What about June 1?

[OX-34]

I've yet to show up for one of these rides and would love to. 1st June looks promising.

[Large]

What about June 1?

Not for me, will be OS.

[ZigZag]

Nothing in the calendar yet so I'm in.

[Taffey]

Not for me, will be OS.

Curious - When do you get back?

[Taffey]

May has filled up unfortunately and June is full too. So I am going with one date in July not in the school holidays.  This gives plenty of time for folk to plan.

So July 27th

I've just registered for July.

[Taffey]

Gentlefolk,

My wife has independently purchased tickets to the festival theatre on the 27th of July - ASO playing Hans Zimmer - for my birthday. She made some vague references to that weekend and I made her confess.

It means I need to change the date of the Blinman Ride. I will write separately to those that have registered already, but I plan to roll it forward a fortnight because one rider has another commitment the following weekend.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused and hope you can still make it.
