I am considering the Border Run but would like to hear from OTHER RIDERS WHO WILL LEAVE ON THE 1ST AUGUST 2014 returning to Perth on Monday 4th August 2014 ? I will be using my K1200lt motor bike towing camper trailer

didn't you do this last year, got all the way there and then came home the day before, so missed the actual Border Run as such.

I'm sure that I passed you out the other side of Norseman on the Friday.

I will be going there....& back....Guy

Do you know where the camp site is NOW for Friday night?
Or do we need to camp right on the edge of the road

Ahab

YeaYea....smartypants, I think I know where to head, just have a few flares ready just in case though.

For anyone not sure of where the eastbound mob camp on night 1 (ie Friday 1 August 2014) ...



Coordinates in the photo if using a GPS.

36km east of Balladonia Roadhouse; its a P bay on the left.

I will be heading off for the weekend , looking forward to camping along the way, i am looking for anyone who would like to carry on East , i will be heading for the Gold Coast. I will be riding 1150rt. I will be flexible on the route if a certain point of interest is nearby. I will be returning from the Gold coast 7-10 days

I had a rear tyre delimitation on the rear when i got to the border last year hung around for and hour and headed back to kalgoorlie to get the back tyre replaced.
I had three blisters on the the rear tyre with was made in Basil and not in Germany is was a metzeler brand which let me down.

kind regards from richard
