Fair enough.... I'll wait until thursday night and go with the majority.

How does a noon lunch with 1pm rollout from Healsville sound for the day?

Sunday should be good mate.

matt232 · 05-08-2004, 1:40 PM

Make sure you vote above otherwise it won't count, mainly because I couldn't be stuffed and the poll will do it for me.

I was thinking about that but the weather forecasts don't go that far, We should have something on the wednesday to give us some idea of what sat and sun are doing weather wise.

If yoy could hand on a while and wait for me. I'll be in Melbourne in December.

omen137 · 05-11-2004, 7:48 PM

Will, try sticking the bike in mcnews.com.au, It doesn't cost anything.

Proto, Let us know when you're in town mate. There are plenty of nudy bars to visit

matt232 · 05-12-2004, 9:23 PM

Last call for drinks gentlemen. We'll draw the winner of the chook raffle at the end of the day.

weather report for the weekend in Melbourne

matt232 · 05-13-2004, 11:50 PM

Latest Forecast
http://www.bom.gov.au/cgi-bin/wrap_fwo.pl?IDV10450.txt

It doesn't look too bad but there might be a few drops over the weekend....bit of a bugger hardly a cloud in the sky during the week.

I feel like going for a ride on both days so, I'll be at healsville at noon both Sat and Sun. Can anyone suggest a place for us to grab a bite and meet up?

omen137 · 05-14-2004, 2:58 AM

I don't know healsville that well, but I know the first servo (shell?) coming back from the Black Spur on the left hand side. I could meet you there on Sunday if you like.

Will, Mick, Brenny, Zop, Cowboy (and anybody else I've missed) come on down!

Will · 05-14-2004, 4:05 AM

I've got a guy coming to look at her for a second time, bringing ca$h!
Keep ya posted

We'll ride through the winter and be ready for your arrive in the summer.

matt232 · 05-14-2004, 5:12 AM

I just sent out a bunch of PM to melbournites I found in the memberslist with my mobile number. If you can't find us in Healesville give me a ring.

Also if I missed someone, please send me a PM and I send my number to you.

I'll work out a place on Saturday and post it up here ASAP.....we can then meetup in a nice warm cafe or something rather than stand out at the servo. If you can't find us/me (depending on the turn out) then give me a call, I sent my mobile number to you in a PM.

Check back here before you head off on Sunday.

matt232 · 05-14-2004, 5:29 AM

I just checked out http://www.street-directory.com.au/ (damn good site that one)

Looks like there is a pub in town called the Grand Hotel

Grand Hotel
Maroondah Hwy
Healesville VIC 3777
Telephone: (03) 5962 4003

I just spoke to them and they have counter meals from 12- 2pm so Lets say we head for there.

Below is the Maps off the above site. The Grand hotel is right in the middle of those maps marked with a H icon and the word Grand beside it.

Not sure if this is going to be a good place having never set foot in the door, but we'll give it a bash.

matt232 · 05-15-2004, 5:29 AM

OK Guys what happened today? brennyP weren't you booked in for Saturday?

Admittedly I didn't get to the Grand Hotel until 12:50 but I stuck around until 1:30pm and no one else showed.....no calls either.

Anyway, I'll do it all again tomorrow.......who's coming?

Zop · 05-15-2004, 6:07 AM

Not sure if I'll be there. All depends on the weather.
