				I'll keep an eye out for the old farts mate, we'll be doing some of the same roads on the Thursday, but probably at different times...you never know your luck though, so keep an eye open for a titanium 10, a blue zzr1200 and a red/silver/black zx9r

Leaving Sydney (Oyster Bay) Wednesday morning and staying somewhere like Tintaldra o'night.
Taking the Mittagong Road via Wollongong, Macquarie Pass, Mittagong, Goulbourn, roundtrip via Harden Jugiong to Gundagai. Then Tumut down towards Tintaldra (as Strika has already described). 
Thursday Morning it'll be Granya, Tallangata, Kiewa, Dederang, Tawonga Gap, Bright (might bypass this and head straight to Myrtleford if time is getting away) Myrtleford to Dandongadale (via Lake Bufallo), 32k of dirt road to Chestnut, Whitfield, Mansfield. Mansfield to Alexandra then Healesville (via Black Spur, but might go Reefton via Marysville if time) and onto Warburton.
Really depends on time from here as to whether we finish off with Powelltown and Neerim or straight to Packenham and KooWeeRup. 
Thats us...two old farts one on a ZRX1200R (red one) and one on a GSX1400. If I dont see you on the highway then it'll be the track, or in the Trackside campground.
were in trackside as well so come say gday.
green zx6, black zx10, red 9 and possibly a couple triumphs

Mate that dirt over to Whitfield is a bitch! Watch out for the exposed rocks, and the "BULLDUST"!!  I shit you not! Trucks traverse that road, and grind the dirt into fine Bulldust no different to up north!  I went to the axles of the Hornet in it! 
 
Don't get me wrong though, it's worth it for the road that leads up to it past the lake, and the other sides tared road into Whitfield is nice too!

				OK, wasn't sure if you were coasting it, or inlanding it! If you were going to come down the other way, I was thinking of trying to join you. But it would take me a day to ride out to meet you the other way, and the roads down there will be clogged with GP "Gassit" Presence!  
   
I hope you enjoy the SS roads. I lurve some of those down there. Especially "that" road. mmmmmmm  I'm getting movement off the seam just thinking about "that" road.!!!! 
   
While down here at the Island, make sure you park your bike where you can see it Phil!!!  I'm looking for an Ohlins for mine you know!!!!
