Thanks Guys,
although I would love to come but cannot, I have watching this thread with interest, and got a little confused.
thanks for clearing that up.
Good luck with it all

Because of the large numbers, i have decided to have 2 touring groups. We finalise these groups by the 31st January 2013.
We will stagger the start times of the groups by 1 day or 24 hours apart. example, group one will leave Port Douglas on the 3rd of August, Group 2 on the 4th August.
The reason for this is twofold, firstly, when we hit the developmental road, we will be travelling at intervals of between 100 to 200 meters apart from vehicle to vehicle, so that we are not all travelling in one another's dust. Secondly, should we decide to do the Telegraph track, it is easier for 9 to 11 vehicles traveling and camping-up on the track than 22. It will be impossible to get 22 vehicles parked at Fruit-bat falls.
However, both groups will finally meet up at Punsand bay resort and we can get a group photo at the Tip together!

The (Possibles) and on our tour list have until the 31st January 2013 to advise if they will be (DEFINITES!) so i can organise booking the various camp sites. Any of the remaining (Possibles) who fail to notify us by the January deadline. Are still welcome to come along. However, they will have to organise there own campsite and accommodation bookings.
Trendsetters, PLEASE PM your contact phone numbers and your state and areas from where you come from to Jas, That way Jas could put a contact list together and then PM them back to the DEFINITES.
This will allow you to contact one another and formally introduce yourselves to one another! It also allows you to see who is the closet fellow Cape York participant closest to you. This might also allow you to meet up and travel from home to Cairns together!
PS, 7 months and counting!
Regards,
RLI

I wish I could make this one but we were aiming for 2014 at this stage.
Got a lil one due to arrive in april this year so she'll be a bit young for a trip like this that early.
Is a great read. I will be taking note of everything for our trip. Look forward to more updates.
PMC (1st January 2013)

G'day folks!
I met with Jas and his lovely wife yesterday at our place and their two gorgeous darling 3 month old twin daughters Charlie and Sofie.
Typical Jas, show the wife my storage drawers, so he can justify why he needs them! lol good tactic that one! I am glad i did not show him the new Turbo and intercooler!
Looking forward to the Cape York trip!
Regards,
Paul
