Hi Guys,

Getting very close, only 2 sleeps to go. Please check in to confirm if your coming.
Would ask if you can arrive at Moe a little bit earlier if you want coffee, we will then have introductions etc, don't want to leave Moe to late as we have a reasonable drive ahead of us and would like to have a couple of breaks to keep us fresh (and alive).
Weather is mixed but either way we will have some rain so ensure you have good tyres, wet weather gear, tarps, all your recovery gear etc. Not that we will need them but i will take my chains as their no value sitting at home.
I have a chain saw but feel free to bring one if you have one.
Fill up at home and then next fuel at Dargo
Looking forward to meeting you and having a ball.

Regards Ron

Hi Guys,
I'd like to stop in Stratford for fuel as it's HEAPS cheaper than Dargo. Please remind me as I'll likely forget. Cheers. See you all soon!
