Hi Jack
That is a real pity... I feel that I will be needing a support vehicle as I have yet to do any kilometres in my car (I can see this ending in tears..

)
This year we will be kicking off stage 1 from the Todd Rd service station at the base of the Westgate Bridge at 9.30am, so we will probably roll up at about 8.30 or 9.00am to allow any re-fueling or jigging around with cars (that will probably be me!!!)
At the moment, these people have confirmed their participation:
- Andrew E (will be joining us in Bacchus Marsh)
- Eddie E (will be joining us in Bacchus Marsh)
- Bob L
- Bill H
- Chris L
- John K (will be joining us in Bacchus Marsh)
- Peter H
- Norman F
- Steve H
From Todd Rd we head to the township of Bacchus Marsh to meet at about 10.00am in Main Street. From here, Chris L will hand out the route maps so we anticipate departure from Bacchus Marsh at about 10.45am and arrival at Daylesford at around 12.30 or 1.00pm, depending on Chris' route and my reliability....
Cheers
Bill
