I'm in too, waiting for vjmc and Lou to announce details in october, i think we should be ready to pounce on bulk accomodation when announced, if not sooner

[AussiXS11G]

I'm IN     

anyone booked as yet - where?

[hen]

Well sounds like a way to brake the cycle  and keep the Banner flying I am in.
to follow up on what has been said, my interaction this year with the VJMC rally was all positive.
So i will be waiting for LOU to pass on the information in Mid October 

so any ideas on a get together down south later in 2020

[xtian]

As Lou said great atmosphere and comradery

[beemeerr11]

As Hen has put my name down as an info point, you don't need to be a VJMC member to attend unless you want to display a bike for a trophy, Bryan and Hen were at this years Rally and I met Christian at the 2011 Rally at Warilla, they can explain what the atmosphere is like among hundreds of other Jap bike enthusiasts, everything is organised, food, rides, marshals etc, there is more information coming out in mid October with dinner costs etc and I'm more than happy to pass them on, like every year I attend this event I book a self contained cabin and just share the cost, to me it's a go with the flow and not organize anything but simply getting there.
Cheers
Lou

Just say where and when, and I'm in. VJMC in May (north for winter)Tassie in December (south for summer) let the comments flow........

[Clutch]

I'm with Bryan and Jonesy , will travel anywhere, somewhere different is good, and the idea of two rallies I like but only if they are held at different times so that those that wish can attend both.
Great ocean rd is good Eddie, just need to watch out for all the tourists

[xtian]

Thinking maybe Mildura, plenty to do and nice food etc

[XSIIE]

The great ocean road sounds good.

[xtian]

I've been thinking for a while now that because of distances and time involved it may be possible to have a couple of meetups, one northish and one southish so everyone gets a chance to have a get together without the distances and time involved?
Hen reckons it's a go.
Any ideas about this thought bubble???

[AussiXS11G]

I'm with Jones on this - T'ba is close to my home but it would be an interesting diversion, we would add some colour to the VJMC gig, some nice rides in the area too
We can do the NSW venue off the Oxley the year after
Having said that - I'll go wherever our gig is to be ......

[hen]

A ok
Can we do a mass email to all members to get some idea of numbers for each location and we maybe have 2 get together s each year but lets get an idea of numbers  for may

There are some nice roads up Toowoomba way probably not as good as wauchope.

[Jonesy :-)]

Well, i havent been more than 2 hrs from home for the wellington rallys so either is ok for me, top roads around wauchope, but the idea of giving the steptoes a break from the hassle of organising everything makes me think vjmc is a winner
