Hi all
I get quite a few emails asking when and where Raid Australia 2012 will be and where to find out more.
I have started a separate article which I intend to update with all the most relevant info as it comes to hand.
Anybody who can provide some information, please let me know and I will add it as we go.
You can find the article here: Raid Australia 2012
Hi Raiders,
My proposal was never planned to clash with any other major Citroen event…….. I specially left 3 weeks between Cit-In and Raid to allow people time to travel and organise themselves.
The choice of May was VERY carefully chosen after considering many many factors.
I’m sorry if that precludes any participants….. I can assure you that any possible timing would preclude some raiders.
I’m sorry if you don’t like my proposal. I know it will be both fun and challenging. It will be different in some ways to previous Raids, but it will not be “un-australian” or “un-raid-like”. It will encompass the very best of Raiding culture.
Anyone who thinks it will be a “soft” or easy run through semi-urban areas……. couldn’t be more wrong.
The route deliberately avoids major towns as much as possible, but allows access to services if they are really needed.
The route is interesting and challenging with great variety.
ITS ON !
IT STARTS 3:00pm MAY1st 2012 at DELORAINE IN TASMANIA.
IT FINISHES 3:00pm JUNE 1st 2012 at CAPE BYRON NSW.
ITS OPEN FOR REGISTRATION OF ANY A SERIES CITROEN.
