Hi to Everyone in the Organisers Chairs

Can one of you please tell us riders, (and preferably put up a map of
Mossel Bay, showing us exactly where) the ride is starting from on
Sat 24 Nov.

Also if riders are staying overnight in Mossel Bay and there is no
official camp site for the start, how do we get our gear up to the
start for loading on the transport trucks - its a tad difficult to
ride a bike to the start and bring along all the camping stuff -
conversely its a tad difficult to find a taxi to carry all the stuff -
what to do with the bike?

Next question - if we are catching the Organised Bus Transport from
Cape Town on 22/23, where is the landing point in Mossel Bay, and
then reverse of the above question applies - how do we get bikes and
gear to guesthouse, B&B or campsite where we are staying for the nite
or two before the ride starts? And I haven't seen a list of
suggestions on accommodation at all on the Forum - was anything sent
out?

Last year this was waxed - transport ie minibus + trailer was waiting
for riders at George Airport, we just had to find them when we got
thru with our gear - we got to the campsite and the start of the ride
was from the campsite.

How is this working this year - I was promised info on this 3 weeks
ago - still have nothing and am now getting concerned cos i don't
know where to book to stay before the start, and because I've been
too busy to apply my mind to this, there's probably no accommodation
available in Mossel Bay already.
