Lyn

Wont know till later in the week if i will attempt to drive down or take it down on the tilt tray, as have got the head off at the moment doing some checking.

Roo V Motorbike sounds like you were even luckier than me.

Was aiming at about an 8.00am arrival at Geelong on Sunday morning

Trevor

Whats the go if you stay the weekend? Can you camp out overnight? Don't really want to go home Sat night if I don't need to. Is there any convoy from Melb on Sat morning? This will be the ACCO's first "registered" outing!

if you want to camp you're more than welcome to. just pitch ya swag or tent or whatever near your vehicle or where ever suits you.

see you all there
Mike

Just asking the obverse or stupid
There is a BBQ available but byo
There is facilities open as in toilets and showers
PS. Not shore yet whats happening but will turn up at some stage.

Geoffb,

Mike would be better one but answers:-

BBQ Saturday night BYO own meat etc (BBQ provided)
Toilets and showers. Yes (tried them out a couple of years ago and were working fine!)
For Battleduck Camping didn't seem to be a problem (when I stayed down there rolled out swag in one of the sheds on site)
Convoy Saturday from Melbourne? Not aware of one (if anyone is let us all know where the meeting point will be). Might be a few going on Sunday Morning however and might even go convoy. But not sure yet of any details.

Very easy going rally worth the effort for a good relaxing weekend!

Convoy (of two) coming from the Western Plains on Saturday Morning
I might have to leave half an hour in front of the Big Truck :

Dad will be heading down the highway leaving Laverton at about 6.45-7.00am Sunday and meeting me near the corner of Bacchus Marsh Road and Princess Highway Corio at about 7.30-7.45 then head into the showgrounds from their.
So if anyone from Melbourne wants to run down to Geelong with Dad im sure he could meet anyone at the Shell (fleetwings) point cook turn off Laverton.
