Think via ebor (671km) will make it to long a day and down via Uralla even longer. Just leaves via grafton(570km) and highway or highway all the way (551km)in my view.

I'd prefer a 'shorter' day as don't want to be too tired/sore for the Saturday.

I've never been down that way so am happy to leave it to your judgement but I reckon that via Grafton sounds like a good option and maybe a bit nicer than 'all highway'.

Personally i would rather via grafton and unfortunately highway happy to go with the flow tho

Maybe 7:30am take off from Beaudesert - gives the guys on the northside a bit of a sleep in :happy1: - otherwise they are almost starting in the dark!!

yep happy with that  :clapping:

By my calculations leaving Beauy around 7.30 will get us into Wauchope around 3.30 allowing around 2 hours for stops on route. Beaudesert
Kyogle
Grafton
Coffs via Nana Glen
Wauchope
Distance 500km
:cheers:

Sounds good to me.
Still an early start from north brissie though.
