TE278U Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Hi All past and future GOR participants. Jan 2012 is approaching rapidly, and this trip needs to be sorted pretty quickly if it is going to happen at all. last year's overnight trip was fantastic, Big shoutout to Jared and Mel for organising a fantastic trip. unfortunately they are unable to organise 2012 due to having a baby and other commitments, so.... I would like to make a call out for volunteers who are able to help out with putting together a trip like this. For those who haven't attended a GOR before, the basic gist is a weekend of driving some of the best roads in Victoria (Australia even) and hanging out with some fellow rollaclub members, and showing some good old Aussie spirit as it's usually around the Australia day holiday. being this late in the year, and having some trouble with accomodation last year, I don't know what our options are, so if anyone has any suggestions that they have researched, please pass them on to me via pm. Otherwise, feel free to post constructive comments in this thread, or even just post to say you're interested in going so I can get an idea of numbers. please vote which weekend you would like the event to be on and your preffered accomodation style. (please don't vote if you don't intend to go ;) ) Anything i've forgotten, please post it or pm me and i'll edit this post. -Dave Edited September 28, 2011 by TE278U Quote
Evan G Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 i dunno what day is australia day in 2012, i reckon we should all get down to apollo bay on a friday night. get hammered and eat bacon until sunday where the long drive home begins Quote
TE278U Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Posted September 28, 2011 it's a Thursday, so unless everyone can get friday off too... it's only going to be an overnighter. most likely more driving, less bacon. ;) -dave Quote
jimi91 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Hmmm idc what date it is lol :lolcry: All i want to do is go for a big drive and see everyone again :happy: See ya Jimi Quote
bAKER Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Yay GOR! Definitely me coming +1 Maybe the SA boys to come also? We'll be doing the meet at Todd Rd Servo on the way up too. It will be hot, and some people won't want to drive for 8 hours back home. Australia day is always the 26th lol. Quote
SLO-030 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 I'll be there! Maybe not in a Corolla, or even a Toyota! But it'll be Toyota powered! 1 Quote
Evan G Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 thursday the sa boys come down, stay thrusday/friday night (possibly saturday) head back (saturday) or sunday :y: Quote
SLO-030 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Posted September 28, 2011 Id probably head over Wednesday night/Thursday Morn. Stay Thursday friday, saturday and possibly sunday. Then head back bright and early-ish Monday morning. Thats just my thoughts, I understand people wont be able to get a heap of time off work (or family). Just putting it out there :yes: Quote
TE278U Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) if you guys want to organise a pre-trip trip, the others who can't get the friday off or who only want to do a weekender can meet up on Sat at campsite/accomodation. start looking for accomodation possibilites now, cause by the time we need to book (nov at the latest) we will need numbers and a confirmd booking Edited September 28, 2011 by TE278U Quote
