GCCC Texas Roundup – 22/23 May
It’s almost time to hitch up them saddlebags, jump on your steed and head west to Texas. We’ll start the day as usual with a meet up at Gloria’s. Then at 0900hrs it’s stands up and off to Canungra, Biddaddaba, Beaudesert (fuel top up if necessary) to our first stop at Rathdowney. With a choice of cafe or pub, our stop will be for 30 minutes. Then it’s on to Mt Alfred, Aratula, Goomburra and Allora for fuel and lunch at the Railway Hotel. (Turnaround point for the day riders). We then head to Leyburn, Karara, Coolmunda and onto the old Tobacco route to Texas.
Dinner is booked at the Stockman Hotel across the road from the motel. Breakfast will be at Rustic on High cafe then we head on a great road to Stanthorpe (fuel up) and on the Cedar route to Queen Mary Falls, Dugandan, Boonah and Home. I will discuss lunch on the way home depending on timing.
Worongary to Allora 230 km
Allora to Texas 160 km
Texas to Stanthorpe 100 km
It will be a bit chilly in Texas so bring your woollies.
I look forward to seeing you on the 22nd.
Cheers, Roscoe

If you’ve not done an overnighter ride, it’s a great way to make new friendships and cement old ones and It is the stories that you remember and become a part of, Stories like “Where’s Jeff?”, “The great Poetry battle at breakfast”, “The history of Texas and Rabbits” and including the GREAT road from Texas to Stanthorpe. It is a great ride which we’ve done a couple of times before, and would highly recommend. Just follow the Link and book your room at
