Norm, Paul and others,
10th March is labour day weekend in Vic. One of my clubs runs a great rally at a great location .....Pinch river on the Barry Way just a bit north of the vic nsw border. I will most likely be attending on the saturday and possibly the friday. Its a bit further east but great riding across from Hotham Omeo, or down from Jindabine. Talk to you next week Norm about a possible inclusion.
6 sleeps to KIRSTy .....and a new Government.

The Barry Way. One of the most picturesque roads in Oz. What a great way to ease into VARSTy.

VARSTy 2014 (Victorian Autumn Russian Sidecar Tour (yippee)) We are doing VARSTy again in 2014. Same format as this year, staying 3 nights in each of 4 different towns in country Victoria. Dates: Tuesday 11 March to Sunday 23 March 2014. We will generally stay in caravan parks and attendees can camp, share cabins or use private cabins. We will have 2 days to ride and explore each locality, and have the ease of coming "home" to camp each night. Details will be finalised later in the year, but I hope we will spend a reasonable time in the area between the Hume Highway and the mountains. Places like Eildon, Mansfield, Bright, Beechworth, Myrtleford. We will book accommodation for the group. If you are interested in coming along lock the dates in your diary and please let me know.

VARSTy 2014 Itinerary is now finalised - 12 nights 11th to 23 March 2014
We will start the tour at Porepunkah (5km from Bright), and move on to Yarrawonga, Eildon and Castlemaine, staying 3 nights at each location.
We will decide each days rides and /or activities as we go, and individuals are able to join the main group or do their own thing. The ride is an opportunity for Ural riders to have fun with other Uralists, both by sharing riding adventures and general socialising.
All Ural riders are invited, and those who want to join in only have to arrange their accommodation directly. We have made preliminary arrangements with caravan parks details of which are included below, but If people want to ride with us and stay in 4 or 5 star luxury then that's quite OK. The parks have a variety of accommodation for those who wish to camp, stay in cabins (private or share) or travel with motorhomes.
Anyone interested in sharing cabins can let me know and I will put all sharers in touch with each other so you can make appropriate bookings.

Home Sunday 23rd
On the long weekend leading up to VARSTy, Lee Edwards has given us details of a sidecar rally being held at a great location; Pinch River on the Barry Way, just north of the NSW/Vic border. The location is terrific, and there are a number of great rides from there to Bright.
To date we have 17 people on 9 bikes as probable starters, and another 12 people on 8 bikes as possible starters.
I will email this post to all Uralists on my mailing list, and will also post on Soviet Steeds, the Ural Aust web site and Facebook page.
Future general communications will only be sent to those who let me know they are joining in. Please sent any queries to me as well.

varsty Locked in
Norm, the Cold Flame Rally at Pinch River is not sidecar specific. 99.9% settled that I will do Cold Flame on way to Varsty.
