RDU 2013 Batemans Bay

This will to start with be about working out the dates then as you no doubt have read in the Nabiac Acomadation? thread there are many ideas rattling around this head and I have even thought of something that might be needing to service their bike before returning home or even getting a tyre fitted but more about that later below are a couple of post from the other thread, and If you have never been to this part of the world you be pleasantly surprised I am sure of that

I don't know if you have down this way in the last 10 years but the road from Bermigue to Tathra has been sealed and the ride you suggested but continuing to Tathra Pub up on the point for Lunch was what I had in mind as for catching a kingy the last time I went out on a fishing boat it cost a fortune and caught nothing but crap I will be contacting one of the few local Comercial fishermen left around here to see if he can organise a nice Snapper or Kingy

You're a funny bugger Hanso. We really do need an 'exasperated' smilie.
My fault for responding but who was it again who brought up Bateman's Bay in the Nabiac thread?

I only mentioned it as part of a Post about Nabiac
there is also the option of going up over the Clyde mtn pass and droping into the AraluenValley to the Pub for lunch this is a great ride for the guys who love the twisties stuff and not to long we may even (weather permiting) have to hire the Bar B Q pontoon boat and head up the Clyde River for a fish a beer and a swim... the options are endless

Settle petal. The issue with the show and shine wasn't that we weren't riding, it was that we were told to be at a certain place for a certain amount of time. A school oval no less. As it happens it turned out OK. OK.

If chaps want to ride, they should ride. If chaps want to sit by a river, have a few beers and a yarn, they should join me by the river.

I like the idea of meeting people part way and was going to suggest it myself. Problem is I'd like to go North AND South.

Hardly think anyone was giving you crap and I'm more than happy to help. None of these get togethers should be "owned" by any one individual.

yeah these days what is not a no go fish sancuary is very heavily fished and if the Kingys are running every man and his dog are out there 50 pounders are rare these days
the road between Bermi and Tathra is made for bikes!!

That a shame it's gone to crap .that ride to the pub sounds good.

Not sure yet TC, I would like to but it all depends on work, If time is tight I might have to give the trailer a run.
