Hi Roy
Whilst I have no official position in FarRoads, just a rider, the way I see it is that the South East iRode #2 is a Farroad iRode ride.
It may also be a Facebook GTR ride, for non Farroad riders.
As an iRode ride, the Farroad rules will apply - see location and checkin times in Taffey's post #6 on 19 February 2023 in this thread above.
Don't forget that times are in Australian Central Daylight time (ACDT) which is 30 mins behind Eastern time (AEDT).
The 3 rides available for Farroad riders are the
iRode 805/12
iRode 1000 and the
iRode 1250
The rules for each ride are listed in Kwaka's post
https://farroad.au/forum/index.php/topic,33.0.html

I understand that the registration process is being worked on at this point of time by those capable people in the back room.
Hopefully there will be details on how to register for the ride posted on this forum by early next week.
So start planning your ride to arrive in Robe by 11:30am ACDT on 18 March 2023 (cutoff time is 12 noon ACDT).

Cheers
Philmor

First of all sorry for the lack of response - crazy busy with too many irons and fires and then there is work.

For this one, I plan to come and entertain those that just come out for a little jolly and those that want to do an organised 1000/1200 ride. So I will be flexible and afterwards publish somewhere appropriate lists of those that formally 'finish'.

So I will grab some names from this list of responses as my guide to how many are coming and go from that.

See you in Robe to those that are coming.

Quote from: Roy on Mar 09, 2023, 03:04 AMAfternoon all , hearing the odd mixed messages . Or I'm  just not getting my head around it .
Can someone please clarify ,
Is the March 18 , "Road to Robe "  ride a GTR .
Or actually a registered ride , with names , distance credited start and finish location , steed ..( bike) ..  options of completing your nominated distance at check in , or half out , half back within the 24 hrs of ride and checkin day ...in the traditional FR way
Cheers
Roy

Roy - on this one, do as you please is my tip. For Streaky Bay, I will set up a formal registrations process and it will be clearer.

Cheers

Okay - I won't be coming back to this forum until after the ride now, so if you want to let me know you're coming, please text me on 0418825333.

I have booked for lunch for a number that is large enough to carry the current numbers and if necessary we can add for any late comers.

If you want to advise me you have had a spot of bother on the ride and won't make it, then text me on 0418825333. If you strike a problem and you need help, I cannot guarantee I can help as I am participating myself, but two heads are better than one right? So drop me a line or give me a call.

Safe riding to all participants.

Hello

A quick ride report and while there were few in number, from FarAway most came. We had Cornelis out of WA (although I think he may have been moonlighting in Adelaide), Vlad from Sydney (two trips the the SA South East in a week - impressive), Ian all the way from Brisvegas and me, from the Adelaide Hills.  All arrived early with appropriate documents in hand completing as follows:

Me - 1000.8km
Ian - 1044km
Vlad - 1099km
Cornelis - 1035km

Check out the Vid - https://youtu.be/am6bvOxRuvs

Cheers All 8)
