Sydney to Melbourne to evandale for Penny racing

[geoffs]

Hi All

We are planning a ride from Sydney to Melbourne then fly over to Launceston for the Penny festival at Evandale and wondering whose interested.
Departing on Saturday 11th of Feb 2012, catching the train to Wollongong or Kiama to avoid the Sydney traffic and riding along to coast planning to arrive in Melbourne on the 22nd and flying over on the Friday the 24th.
We will be using motels for accommodation and eating out. It will be summer so we wont need to carry much gear. Most days will be about 100kms

I'm interested! But I can't really commit to anything until later in the year. But definitely pencil me in for it

Actually just re-reading, going coastal? I think I would prefer to go inland via the snowies if I was going to take the time off for it. But again, will think about that later in the year.

so this isnt the hardcore nearly die route that we took? It sounds a lot nicer!!!! me and james fowler still dont talk about that trip, I will never forgive him for making me ride up those things! (though I did get a lot fitter)

I just don't want you to get nightmares!

Back on topic. Sounds like a good trip, but i think i'm on uni placement during February, so i'm out.

Some photos of a trip I did this time last year.
Bundanoon to Bairnsdale.
There are heaps of ways you can go but it sounds better if you start and finish at towns that start with the same letter
