Does anyone know Tony who runs Loveday?

Ive been there a bit and he knows me by name. It was $60 day to wheel and camp $40 just wheel then $20 per day per vehicle there after.He bhas done me deals in the past so im happy to ring him. If you can give me approx no's and length of time ill see what he says

[AB]

I think we should say 100 people for a 2 week stay?

What does everyone else think of that for a rough guesstimation.

[Sir Roofy]

Thats a fair assumption,we,ll most likely stay for a week,will be easyer once we have a price to work on

Appreciate your doing this!

Maybe just mention that it will be a 100 people that are responsible and friendly family type attitude so he doesnt think there will be 100 menacing teenagers turning up from a club to thrash around his property full of grog, etc...lol

[growler2058]

He'd probably join in!!

So Ill give him a buz now... ideas of numers of vehicles?

[AB]

I would say 35-40 vehicles...Cheers mate!

[DX grunt]

Thats a fair assumption,we,ll most likely stay for a week,will be easyer once we have a price to work on

I'm happy for a week too. It takes about 3 days to comfortably drive over, then 3 days back and our stay and I want to see my family in Vic, so yeah, a week's fine for me.

[AB]

I'm going to set up camp and fish on my own after the riff raff have left...lol

Just spoke to Growlers on the phone about Loveday....Sounds like a mad spot for us to go!!!

Can't wait now, bring on Easter 2012!!!

[growler2058]

I would say 35-40 vehicles...Cheers mate!

Basically $60 per vehicle for the 1st day then $10 per day per vehicle thereafter. Which is the standard deal, he's come unstuck in the past with numbers not turning up etc. Then others roll up weeks later and want the same deal as they got as a group. So he's steered away from group rates. Anyway he's happ.............................................. .... update done Shady booked for 2 days before easter whith option to extend camp is about 300m long so if some of the ol crew dont wanna hang with other ol crew you can move closer to the young bucks and vica versa. Also if it all gets to muddy plenty of options in nearby Barmera supplies everthing you need 10-15mins drive.... Lookin real forward to meetin you all. Tony will also sign up to the forum to say G'day he cant necessarily respond to all replies he is running a farm and gets quite flat out... but we are booked in

Hey AB, if all is good and I can go, we should meetup in VIc and go from there...

[Bigrig]

Right - who's in for a beer fund? I figure we all put $5 in per week between now and then, we should have a fair whack saved to put towards grog by the time the trip comes around ...... and that should just about cover me!!! ROFLMFAO!!!!

[AB]

Hey AB, if all is good and I can go, we should meetup in VIc and go from there...

[Maxhead]

Yep agreed. Hopefully I can meet up with someone on the way to VIC then with you guys and start the party a bit earlier...lol

[Bigrig]

Hey AB, if all is good and I can go, we should meetup in VIc and go from there...

If anyone is up for it, I don't care which way I go down (as I'll come back the other way), so what about myself and maybe the other queenslanders heading south and meeting up with the NSW attendees in somewhere like Forbes or Hay, and then all of that group meeting up with the Vic contingent somewhere around Mildura for the last leg in?? That would be an awesome sight to see ... a dozen or more heavily laden patrols in convoy heading across the South Australian border and into the park!!!! I'm going to have to go pop some valium ...

[AB]

[big_fletch]

Plassy, Plassy, now bro, now. Bring out your convoy rubber duckie thread. lol

[Dhuck]

Here's my little story. If I can convince the boss to go (I have mentioned it to her several times), without replacing my little 60L comp fuel tank I will have to stop 6 times before we hit the petrol station at Barmera. 60L tank takes me about 300k.

Hmmmm ... how will we address this little dilemma? LOL!

[Dhuck]

I will have to spend money on an upgrade. No gas just bigger tank or auxiliary

[Bigrig]

Ummmm ... lots I figure!! lol

The way I figure it, I'll probably have a different motor by then running petrol only, so not much point me working it out just yet!

[Maxhead]

Looks like only a 2000km return trip from Canberra...pi55 eazy

[Bob]

Bigrig would have at least a 4000K round trip. Running on Gas @ say 70c a Litre and using 18 Litres per 100 K's it wil cost :-

40 X 18 = 720 Litres @ 70c a Litre is $504

Lets say 22 Litres per Hundred

40 X 22 = 880 @ 70c a Litre is $616

Blow that out to about 6000 klms mate, and it will all be petrol ... Eeeeeeekkkkkkkk ....

And 18 litres per hundred?? I'm flattered, but towing a camper on a lot of dirt roads, with the current engine I reckon I would be somewhere around 26-28 lph

I'll need about 1,360lts of diesel, averaging $1.70 per litre, at 17lt/100k which works out to about $2,312 - for diesel. Eeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk.

Oh well, ya gotta do what ya gotta do. Plenty of time to save up - starting now. Just have to trim the fat for a while. lol

I'm looking at around $400 for a 2000km trip...so pretty happy with that :)

[Bob]

OK, thanks Kat, you rock !!

On Gas you should average 20 Litres per 100 K's so for round Trip of say 2200 K's (allowing for Trips) Fuel Costs should be approx $290 . Not bad for 4.5 Litre vehicle. Would hate to do it on Petrol though

Besides the fuel tank is too small. I've 12 months to rectify that ! bigger gas and petrol tanks. And depends on what I tow. Big caravan or little one.

If you're carrying weight and doing diet roads, I hate to be pragmatic, but there isn't a 6 or 8 cylinder out there that's going to get 20 lph on gas ... sorry boys and girls. Work on 24-26 and that could still be conservative.

Still better than on petrol as Bob states - and come to think of it, that's going to be my dilemma ... and for nearly triple that distance (just shy of 6000 klms for the trip we are looking at).

Diet roads are good, you use less fuel on them. WARNING over use of Diet roads may lead to vehicles running lean which could manifest itself as fuel starvation.

Plenty of room at Loveday...for vans/campers

Can get Hot up there . Easter would be when weather starts to get cooler but then again who knows . I would say that it would be fairly warm (Not Hot) at that time of the year.

if it rains it usually only for a day and then clears up.

Loveday was featured on the 4 Wheel drive Show episode on Aurora yest evening.

First time I had seen the show so was a good jag in that regard... won't be watching it again tho. On of the presenters gives me the yips and the 5 odd minutes they devoted to their program with the Camper Trailer shootout was 4 mins and 50 seconds of footage of the convoy 13 Campers and 6 support vehicles driving here and driving there and about 10 seconds of 1 second flashes of the inside of a couple of the campers.

Thankfully the voice over of the Loveday segment was the owner or I would have turned it off... like the camping along the River I must say
