Bike of the Rally is a non-expert panel of club members. So it probably wont be decided on who's bike has the most original widget, that was never on the original nut, or it's been over-polished.

I have entry form that I can email, if you like.  My email address is in post #1, above.

I'm really looking forward to riding my XS in it's maiden rally.
I'll drag the RD out on the sunday, just to get the blood circulating.

Would be a great ride up from Melbourne.

Anyone else in VIC fancy going up?





3 routes to choose from on that map.

Except you'd end up 200km from the rally!  Get to WAGGA, not Griffith.

Good thing is, Melbourne to Wagga can be turned into a bit of a hoot by heading via Bright, Mt Beauty, Granya Gap, Jingellic.
Or you could live life on the edge along the Hume.

The title says it all.

'Eastenders' are Wagga based members of the GCMCC.  The group was started because they didn't want the hassles of setting up another club.  BTW - there is a group called the 'northenders' - around Cobar.


The rally kicks off on Saturday morning (unexpected!).
Long ride of about 180km to Gundagai, Cootamundra and Junee (lunch).
Short ride is an indirect route to Junee.
There is no formal return ride to Wagga.

Evening social at a Venue in Wagga (function room in one of the main street hotels last year)

Sunday morning ride, typically about 80-100km finishing with a bbq lunch at Wagga Beach.

If anyone would like an entry form, send me an email <raybirchall@bigpond.com>

















You can see that we need an XS or two.
