Hi Folks, yep it's on again, our annual State Of Origin (S.O.O.) weekend ride and get-together in Nambucca Heads. Time to sort out work rosters and other matters that will get you to the S.O.O.
weekend. SOO will be on the second weekend in September this year as Father's is the 2nd of September. QLD school holidays start 21st September and NSW school holidays start 28th September so
there is only one weekend that suits SOO in September this year.

Weather data for Nambucca Heads has September as the lowest rainfall month for each year.

When: Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th September 2018.

Where: Nambucca Heads NSW.

Staying: White Albatross Park.

As many of you will know sharing cabins is a good way to keep the cost down so if sharing is an option for you talk to each other about what can be arranged.

The evening dinner for Saturday will be at the V Wall Tavern with a group table booking.

As usual could those planning to attend the 2018 SOO please reply here and I’ll amend the list as it progresses.
I hope to see everyone again this year (and hopefully some new members and their Kats) and look forward to enjoying your company as we celebrate our mighty Kats in all their glory.

For the QLD Kat riders if you are interested in the group ride going to Nambucca Heads on the Friday details will be posted here as the SOO gets closer.

For the QLD riders and supporters our starting point is:

Shell Servo corner of Granard Rd and Beatty Rd Rocklea.
Depart Time: 07:00, be fueled up and ready to leave at 7:00.

Fine tuning details for QLD and NSW will be posted here over the next few months, watch this space.

Cheers,
Glen.

This is the only housekeeping that matters for SOO. Anyone who is attending this years SOO (this includes QLD/NSW and anyone else) and wants to be seated with the Katana Forum members for the Saturday night dinner at the V Wall Tavern please post your name and if you are a plus 1 for the dinner. Having the number of people for the dinner as accurate as possible allows me to make a solid booking for the night and gets everyone a seat. The V Wall Tavern is a popular spot with limited seating/tables and booking for a large group like ours is a must. Doing it this way ensures there is only one point of contact from the Katana Forum (me) to arrange the seat bookings and eliminates double booking or worse, should several people decide to make bookings resulting in the place being booked out and only we turn up to half fill the place. I don't think that would go down too well with Darren the manager. Let's keep it simple with everyone putting their name on a post here and then everyone can relax and enjoy the night as we always do.

You flying into Brissie - need a scooter?

or a outfit?

Great to have you aboard Tom. Let's hope the planets line up for it this year.

Cheers mate.

Thanks for the offers guys. Really appreciate it.

I am not sure where I will be flying in from due to business commitments away that time as this will dictate whether I land in Brisbane or Sydney. As soon as I know I will let you know.

Cheers
Tom

There is a spare rack out here Tom. We would just have to get you to Derek's place for the scooter, back of the Kat ?

Cheers.
