Dick's 2008 Epic

Richard (Dick) Orwin would like to organise a three day ride and would like some help and ideas from others.

Dick's thoughts so far:
Day 1 Ferry to Mandora - Litchfield Pub.
Day 2 Litchfield - Adelaide River.
Day 3 Home via 2 Dams.

Two groups - fast and slow (maybe third group)
Will need support vehicle.

Other suggestions/comments would be helpful, e.g. Which long weekend next year? How many want to go? Is anyone willing to drive the support vehicle?

Send your interest, comments, ideas, questions to Dick at auto@spin.net.au
