I'm going on the ride as well. I always read these forums but never reply. Just a lurker. It's my second GVBR. If you haven't found them yet there is a big discussion on the bicycle victoria website forums. www.bv.com.au/forums

I'm also going by myself but have met people previously so I will know a few faces.

I was thinking about doing this type of ride in America but don't know where to start looking. It's so great having all the food provided and the camps set up.

Cheers
