I reckon we should get there no later than 12am well and truly, i thinks it's only about 390 from Barky across that back way, baring any breakdowns or flatties of course. or Sitdownman drowning his bike.

Apprentices accepted?

Err G'Day

Been watching this expedition develop. Now that the dust is settling on the planning, any objections to a socially incapable misfit on some dodgy european hardware tagging along for the Friday night/Saturday bit?

Some more questions which will make me stand out as a non local:
1. Is the Bowen River Pub in Collinsville?
2. Are you booking rooms or camping out the back, do I need to ring the pub and reserve a barstool, or just bring me tent?
3. I think the ramblings mentioned travelling Bowen River Pub, Mt Coolon, Clermont, Springsure. Is this still the intended root?

My vague scratched in the dirt plan might involve leaving Moron Bar mid Friday Arv towards Collinsville, then depart the expedition around Clermont on the Saturday.
Have fuel range of about 300ks, don't drink before beakfast.

2. Are you booking rooms or camping out the back, do I need to ring the pub and reserve a barstool, or just bring me tent? I'm camping, i think most others too.

That should be a bloody good run Charlie, yeh sorry i didn't get back to you , been flat out.
Instead of slabbing it up the towers road to get to talki you have several options, come up the Ken Logan road which runs right past home, turn left at mT Maclaren grain depot, then across to the kilcummin T junction you can go right there & travel up the coolan road abit & turn left at dooruna & across to talki & avon.
Or left at Kilcummin T junction then right onto golden downs road & up to talki, avon etc.

I thought that was the way we were going back to Clermont on Saturday, Charles are you planning on doing the same route twice in 2 days? Have you been on the vino again That other way i gave you is only 275k's from Clermont to Belyando +75 to Dysart. 350 all up hardly a hardcore expedition, you will be there well and truly by lunch. Then 250 after lunch to Bowen river via the dam, i'll be necking my first pot at 4pm sharp on the left hand bar stool near the door.
