Desert Raid 2015 - Rawlinna - Tuesday 5 May 2015
Departure Details - Desert Raid
G'Day Slackers,
I'll be leaving from the Gull Servo at Corner of Canning Road and Brookton Highway Karrugullen on Saturday 2 May at 9.00am and headed for The Breakaways that evening. I'll be taking the Brookton Highway initially but turning off at Woods Loop just short of Brookton. From there to Hyden it should be mostly good formed unsealed roads.
See ya then.

Similar plan, we are just doing a quick pick up at the gull, could get crowded there as well, we are going out through Beverley though. Look for the big Shire horses on Woods Loop, should be on your left as you go down the hill.

For anyone heading northwards post Rawlina, here is the site you need to apply for travel permits depending on roads you are traversing.

Re: Departure Details - Desert Raid
I'm planning to meet here, but might have to leave a bit later in the morning, so if I don't turn up at 9am I'll see you at the Breakaways.Digger wrote:G'Day Slackers,

Yes
The bike is sorted
The food is sorted
The sleeping gear sorted
Now for the challenge to pack it all on
Will be a great week or so
Just enough rain to make it interesting by the look of things

My plan depend on three fluids:GSDisciple wrote:Hey Digger

1. Fuel.
2. Water.
3. Alcohol.
But not necessarily in that order.
Some people are like Slinkys, you can't help smiling when you push them downstairs.

Most problems can be solved with a suitable application of throttle!

The Raiders are on their way with a few diversionary raids.
The Gull Servo at Karagullen was a hive of activity as last minute adjustments to packing, suspension, air intakes and lighting.
Digger arrived with breathing problems (his bike...not him). The source of the anaphylactic shock was located and the large group hit the Brookton Highway.
Part of the group soon found gravel.
