I am hoping to organise an Australian visit in 2019 - to keep costs under control given our "tyranny of distance" group bookings will be advisable. Co-ordinating the visit with the Federal Rally would help in this regard. Having travelled the length and breadth of Australia over the years [the only significant places still on my "bucket list" are the tip of Cape York, Lord Howe and Norfolk Islands] plus having owned and operated a travel agency, I am able to advise on possible locations of interest to visit to suit specific wishes of participants. Without any commitment, I would appreciate prospective attendees contacting me by a message through the forum with information on where they would like to visit and their individual interests so I can begin initial planning. http://au.rrforums.net/cgi-bin/forum/board-profile.pl?action=sendmsg&to=david_gore&db=passwd . |

Thanks Patrick, We will work well together - we cannot really do much until the 2019 Rally organising committee are appointed or we get enough interest in the meantime to make going independent viable. A lot will depend on how much time our visitors are able to spend here - we have to be careful to avoid trying to do too much in too short a time with excessive time spent travelling. We will need to develop possible visit and sight-seeing options and survey prospective attendees to see what appeals to them. |
