G'day gents, very unhappy to have to say that I'll be missing out on this years TDUT. The body's been telling me something's not quite right since mid December & I've tried my best to ignore it but it has persisted so now I have to attend to it. I've had some "tests" & indications are that nothing serious is going on but there's more to come & of course they're scheduled smack bang in the middle of the TDUT week.

Hope you all enjoy yourselves. Hopefully next year wife will be well, I'll be well & actually get to a TDUT.

and we were all going to be tempted to buy a Tiger!
All the best.
cheers Graeme

I think we're all becoming aware of the fact that the next TDUT is going to be in The Apple Isle... nice ploy Shane... a little heavy handed on the emotional content, maybe, but I like the way you're thinking; rope 'em in now so there's no excuses later

Seriously, look after yourself mate and we'll see you at the next one... even if we all do have to float on over to Tazzy.


Next TDUT in Tazzy... the TTDUT, or the TDUTiT*... whatever ya' call it, a good idea.

* Thunder Down Under Tour in Tasmania (TDUTiT)... It's got TiT in it, so it must be good.

Gotchya listed and glad to see you're coming, both'o ya. See ya's there.

Apart from unforeseen circumstances both Big Dave and myself will be there ......
I'll be travelling from Sydney and Dave from Cowra.

I'm happy either way... as long as there's stops to "see and do" along the way without busting a gut to get there.

well since we are going to Khancoban on Sat anyway, how about we stick with a different route. Taking into account your other half and your wish for "stops"
what about Omeo-Bruthen (coffee) To Orbost via highway (lunch) Bonang to Bombala (nice scenic stops along way, coffee could be an issue until Bombala) ,
Dalgety and Berridale. Plenty of time etc
cheers Graeme

Brenton, Azza, Shane and maybe Ian (2)
you saw that I posted about going ex Omeo via Orbost etc. Brenton is going via Elliot Way. Brenton will come out near Cabramurra. If he turns left then this is irrelevant but if he turns right towards Khancoban then we could maybe meet him there around lunchtime and all travel to Berridale via Thredbo. This could be affected by whether Ian is coming to Omeo on thurs or friday. Or we can stay as is. What does everyone think? And then there is the other Ian (aussie9) from Mildura, that could fit in also?????
cheers Graeme

g'day, haven't stuck my nose in here for a few days so I'm just catching up.

I am working on Thursday so won't be seeing anybody until I arrive on Friday arvo/evening.
Traveling direct as possible home - Wagga - Tumut - Berridale.

not long now

Weather is looking good!!??

[Trotski]

if the forecast holds then it will be hot & sunny with possible scattered thunderstorms in the afternoons BUT as always in the Snowys be prepared for any Weather

There will be no staff at the office on the Friday arvo, to check anyone in... so

Can all those staying at the lodge please PM me your mobile numbers ASAP... we're suffering internet problems locally (home and work) so Carpe and email etc is a pain in the arse...

Alternately,

park your bikes outside the pub or bakery on the Friday arvo when you get to Berridale, so we can find you. Just don't eat all the cake before we get there.

Seems sensible. "clearing to the east on Thursday" can mean a lot of things-----for friday
