BONFIRE 2016
OK whos going?
At this stage it looks like im in.
I intend on travelling to Vic the Thurs stay the night. Then Fri catch up with Vic crew and cruise with them up to usual spot for Fri night and Bonfire of course Sat.
I may or may not go to Syd on the Sunday or just slowly cruise home maybe back via Melb as the drive through the centre is just f**king awful.
Thoughts and whos going?

Re: BONFIRE 2016
I'm keen, and tempted to fly into VIC for the trip up, unsure on that yet though.

Re: BONFIRE 2016
I have the mental idea to go, but haven't laid down any plans yet or discussed with other half. At least I'm not travelling on my birthday this year.
Not sure if I can withstand another bout of Melbourne traffic, especially in a manual this time. I could be tempted to go the long route if the weather is any better than the almost non-stop torrent of rain and wind from last year.

Re: BONFIRE 2016
Where are you thinking of stopping in Vic? Planning on the full coastal like us other SA guys did last year to Port Fairy, or the slightly more middle route?vipfto wrote:I intend on travelling to Vic the Thurs stay the night.
