Gee Pete, you upsetting people again. I think your a well organised ride leader and i have on problem with you leading a ride, i don't think anyone would have a problem with you as a ride leader.
I would say Tim was looking forward to the oridginal post.

Folks,
The final numbers are completed here is how it pans out.
There are 15 riders and 3 not riding, so 18 in total.
Thank you all for your payments I have paid the Ski lodge for the accomodation.
Two people are unable to attend and have paid with both of their places having been taken by two others and therefore a refund will take place.
Please PM me your bank details and I will provide a full refund to both of you as no one is out of pocket here.

Remember to bring sheets or sleeping bag, pillow case, beverages and nibbles everything else will be provided.
Oh yeah dont forget the bike, gear and some clothes etc...


Direction details to come later on how to get to the Jungfrau lodge at Mt Buller.

Mt Buller details.
Firstly we have an extra rider and the fuel at Abbeyard is organised, there will be 60L of Caltex 98RON waiting.
Note: If your on a two stroke BYO oil, measuring and mixing items.

As previously mentioned bring, sheets or sleeping bag, pillow case, bike & gear, beverages and nibbles.
The Jungfrau lodge provides doona's and pillows and has secure entry via a electronic doorcode keypad.
The weekends doorcode will be provided after arrival for the weekend. Press the buzzer at the front door for initial entry access.

The Jungfrau lodge is located on Chamois Rd in the Mt Buller ski village almost opposite bus stop No3.
There is a full kitchen, drying room, heating, fridges and freezers, IPOD/Phone dock-player, TV's, Theatre, Sauna, Spa, Pool and Table Tennis tables.
Before we leave each person will need to clean their room along with other assigned duites in areas listed on a roster by rooms.

Meals:
ALL meals are fully catered inclusive of coffee, tea, juice and mountain water.
Provided meals are Friday night BBQ dinner, Saturday-breakfast, lunch and dinner and Sunday breakfast and lunch.
If you are unable to make any of these meals or have special dietry requirements please advise ASAP and no later than Wednesday the 15th of March.
Otherwise I will assume all meals are attended and everyone eats whatever is put in front of them.

There is a daytime licensed supermarket, post office, ATM's, Cinema, Gym with climbing wall, bars and resturants on the mountain.
There is plenty to keep people busy or you can do nothing on the mountain.
This time of year there is allot of cycling, 4WD'ing and bush walking.
On the same weekend there is a Womens MTB clinic and MTB skills training events taking place along with a road cycle event between Mt Buller and Mansfield to be aware of.

For more details go to: www.mtbuller.com.au  where information and virtual tours are available of the mountain and village.
BTW while your on the MT Buller site you will see there is a very similar 2 day ride run at $495 per person.

Directions:
Drive to Mt Buller (about 3hrs from Melbourne) and you will enter the village on the "Mt Buller Rd" when you see the clock tower and temperature info sign ahead turn left until you hit the T junction of this road, "Stirling Rd" and "The Avenue".
Turn left onto "Stirling Rd" and at the next cross roads turn right down "Chamois Rd". The Jungfrau Ski lodge is about 300m along on the RHS just after bus top No3 on LHS and refuse hut on RHS.
Parking is along the side of the road and bike will be secured elsewhere. Bring something to lock your bike up when its not in use.

Ah Mr Serge, if my memory is correct our red drinking is waning significantly, I bought a full bottle home from NSW - tut, tut.

As to who's shout it is - CRIKEY!! let's see - 2 x BBQ's with a few most welcome sponging mates = 2 bottles for me and a crate for you, should do it just nicely.  YEEE HAAAA!!!

Hey Brad - will the snow be melted by the time we get there?

The cab savs are locked in.

Ken,
Thats for sure, no snow as the photo was taken in 2009 but given the altitude and some cold weather it could snow while we are there. Notably the the temp up there is usually half whatever it is in Melbourne with todays top all of 10 degrees, excellent for riding in all that gear.
I will bring a drop of buggerd red to par-take in when all of Serge's case of Grange is knocked off. Gee tks Sergie!

Guys as this is the High Country I cannot stress enough good tough rock tyres with at least heavy duty tubes (plus spares)and the correct tyre pressure, otherwise the group may get held up more than is necessary.
This weekend is a good time to make the appropriate changes.
First one to get a flat does the dishes Saturday night, no excuses!

Ken, ken, ken,

The only reason you brought a bottle home was because you helped me empty the three bottles I took!   And by that time, I didn't know which end of the bottle to open!

Perhaps we could attempt to make amends?

Stuart,
I hear ya, and yes he is.
A flat and split front tyre after 10K's before Mt Stirling will get those dish pan hands working.
He is the prime candidate for sure.

Forgot to mention the first person caught falling of the bike gets to dry the dishes, but expect this might be mediated to the best fall of the day as voted by the group.

Is going to be good, ye ha!
