For the folks going to Orange, I just had a chat with a fiend who I have ridden with a number of times. Nice guy. He is looking for a lift to Orange on Saturday. All his mates are going Friday which he can't make. He is good for a lift home. Can anyone help?

Hi Guys, I (Josh.F.) am riding the 170km in Orange this weekend (with Steve.B). We have our own accom and transport sorted already. Just wondering if there is any intention to form groups/bunches according to estimated ave speeds? If so will they be according to the usual groups we ride with in the club (25's, 28's, Middies etc)?

Please join the facebook group. https://m.me/g/AbbFhAxlWL-orV0X

At the moment we have a Middies group: Manny, Joel, Evan & Jeremy I believe the rest will be 28's unless they also want to join the Middies which they are welcome.

Cheers Manny. We will most likely kick off with the 28's and see how we go from there. See you on FB for the rest.

2018 edition is March 4th. Early bird closes next Friday. Was wondering how much interest there is in the 170km ride? Always more fun in a group :)
