Yeah, thanks Gricey, gummies on the list. Hope that eases off a bit before next week. Has been testing around SA as well. The Adelaide Hills have turned into fountains a few times over the last couple of weeks. Trees falling all over the place, and big holes in roads....nasty!!

Might be a better option to travel a bit south and then inland through Vic ;)

My original planned route to Moulamein is now a no go zone with flooding through the Forbes area.
I will now head down the east coast toward Sydney (or maybe go via Tamworth & Dubbo) then fang out to Bathurst for a couple of quick laps before heading down to Wagga Wagga, then I'll be legging it out west to Moulamein to meet the SA convoy on Wednesday for the run into Albury on Thursday.

But you can't start a road trip without a good old car club cruise in the country side just to set the mood :P
So my road tripping will start off bright and early on Sunday morning (tomorrow) with an OSJCC cruise out to Kilcoy and Esk before I then start my journey south for the Nats

See you all real soon :D

Sounds like a plan!
We will be home until Thursday if you or anyone else wants to call in. Right about the floods, anywhere south west is risky, Forbes was peaking today. Lachlan has all its dams full, so no mitigation possible. At least it stopped raining, and a beautiful day yesterday.
Forcast for Friday here is 11 degrees max and showers, but may be heavier. Bring your warm and dry stuff.
We have had the wettest September in 30 years so far.

Travel safe!
Cheers, Matt.

I'm in Bathurst tonight (Mon) and after a hearty breakfast and a few laps of the mountain in the morning I'll start heading toward Goulburn, Gundagai and Wagga Wagga tomorrow.

I met up last night in Stanthorpe with Russel and Carrol, then first thing this morning I caught up with Glenn and Elaine Potter just south of Tenterfield and If I don't get too side tracked by interesting detours after Goulburn I will endeavor to breeze through Rye Park en-route to Wagga Wagga (although I'm almost temped to drive down through Canbera to Cooma just so I can drive over the Snowies again :mrgreen: )

Yeah Stickman, call in if you can. Donkey can meet Shrek! Dave NQ will be here tonight. I am busily working on both Shrek and Aunty Mary, last minute jobs of course. Some little things surfaced with Mary in the last week, but thats so much better than en route to the nats!
Sounds like a great tour you're having.

To all, be warned that the forecast is for more rain on Thursday, perhaps 30 mm for Canberra. Should be clearing Friday though for a nice weekend. Hopefully.
Travel safely.
Cheers, Matt.
