Answers to a few questions that have come my way...
Will I be able to leave fuel somewhere out on the course?
Yes. Fuel supplies can be left at the Main Control. Fuel containers can be sent with officials to the Main Control on Sunday morning. If you’re entering on the day and wish to deposit extra fuel at the Main Control, please allow yourself plenty of time, as these officials will leave the parc ferme early.
Can I bring more than one motorbike?
Yes. There are no fees for additional bikes. All bikes being ridden on the course will need to abide by the event guidelines (i.e. Pre 85, etc). You will need to take any riders cards or sheets with you, and affix a duplicate of your issued bike number (texta or tape is fine) on any additional bikes that are ridden on the course.
Is Harrow suitable for novices?
Not really. While any competent rider should be able to get around the course, and you don’t have to complete all of the sections, people with little or no riding experience will probably struggle (especially if it's wet).
What are the accommodation options?
The preferred option is camping at Harrow. There are powered and non-powered sites available at very reasonable rates, call 03 5588 1205 to book. There is also limited accommodation at Harrow’s Hermitage Hotel, but it's probably all booked out now, call 03 5588 1209. For those seeking motels or similar accommodation the closest towns offering this are Edenhope and Casterton.
