Fatboy

be there on the Thurs Night and out on the Sunday, once the eligibilty stuff is out of the way put me to work on a corner / start/ whatever.

Can the riders make sure that you have correct machine ID per the GCRs IE "E" for Evo etc. This is a requirement at the Australian Championships so better to get it arranged before hand.

[fatboyracing]

Hi Freaky,
Fairs are now $69.00 each way for cruise seats and $61.00 each way for your car,ute etc
you can update to a cabin for an extra $49.00 .This is for bookings before 30 June and travel from May3 to August 31st.
I think these fairs are not to bad in price

Hi All,

Cost as follows for 1, $69.00 + $61.00 for the ute & driver one way, sleeping in an Oceanview recliner, but please keep in mind, there is no sailing from Devonport to Melbourne on the Sunday night, so the return trip will be the Monday, so if you need to work on the Tuesday, do some grovelling now with your boss, unless you are going straight to work once you get back on dry land. Some of you will probably need the rest of the week off to recover, whether that be your liver or your aching bones ?  Sorry guys.

HOw far it the track from the boat. As in if you get the Thursday ferry and you get in the dark, how long does it take to get somewhere you should be so you can get to the track without missing sign in ?  I got this one back on the agenda, i just need to figure out the logistics and i might do it.

but im not one for getting organised, like if i get a cabin do you need to get another person to go in with you or do you get whatever, and when you get off ( the boat that is) is it like a crazy mountain goat ride like trying to get to the snow fields in the dark ?

[Rossvickicampbell]

freaky - no where is far in Tassie - the boat docks at Devonport and would be at most 1 hour to Launceston (maybe less with all the small town bypasses going in).  Depnds on where you are staying.  Carrick is on/just off the main way and as the guys have said is 15/20 minutes closer to Devonport from Launceston - all excellent roads etc etc etc nothing like trying to get to the ski fields!!

Havent got as far as the staying part yet ross.  Where is this place anyway ? and have the tassieclub got some deal going with a local motel of somthing ?  What about cabin shares etc ? anyone looking for a 3 or 4th wheel .?...  P.S  and you pick up your own soaps no kontra ok.

So if you get off the bout at 6pm you get to the palce at 7pm IS that the idea ?

[Rossvickicampbell]

Freaky - Carrick is one of those nice small towns you pass through on a trip - as we said it isn't far from Launceston so I dont think there are any specials being negotiated around town as there is heaps of accommodation very close.  I tried to upload a google map for you but my internet connection here at work is so slow it aint going to happen - just go to google maps and put in Carrick Tasmania - not far from Hadspen west south west of Launceston.  As far as convincing somebody to share with them well...............................

cheers

Rossco

Hope to see you there!
