Um, you could fly to Sydney, and then fly to Canberra... (I don't think you can fly directly to Canberra from NZ). Then, it is about 2.5 hours drive from Canberra to Thredbo, but there are coaches like this one (http://www.mountainpass.com.au/Home.html) that you can go on, if you don't want to hire a car. Or, you could hitch a lift with one of us girls leaving from Sydney if anyone has any room!!!
hey
has anyone actually payed for it yet?
oh and yakinaway itd be best to catch a lift with someone or get a direct flight cause the coach up there is heaps expensive and the flight to canberra wouldnt be much better... I could maybe take you... Kinda depends cause im takin Mandy so thats already 2 bikes and gear.

Actually Colin's away at present so don't hold your breath. I will call soon and talk to him about it. Let you know when I get onto him.

Check out Virgin ... I think they have a 32kg max per piece of sporting equipment, and your bike counts for 5kg of your total 20kg. Although the Bullet would be fine for Thredbo, good for trail riding there too.sweet yeah the idea is growing on me more n more each day where u at bethany

Thredders weekend
Hi All,
I've been to the last 2 women's weekends at Thredders and they are great fun.
It's supposed to be for all skills but I found that they mostly cater for the beginner. The second year around I spent most of the time with one other girl who was exactly at my level and we left the group quite a bit. Both years there have been a couple of girls that really had no riding exp off road and they ended up giving up after the first run.
All in all though it's a great weekend and you really get a chance to improve your skills which is always a good thing!!!
