Has anyone thought of a 'circular route' convoy that passes through various states and districts on a predetermined course, one that could be joined and left at the convenience of the participants. Sort of a 'rolling' convoy. For example, a Qlder may wish to travel from Central Qld through the SE Corner of the state and follow the coast to Sydney then on to perhaps Wagga or somewhere and then turn homewards, whilst someone from Brisbane or Coffs may wish to join him though Sydney and continue to Melbourne and Adelaide before returning, and so on ad infinitum.
One could if one wished and was in a position to do so, do a complete circumnavigation whilst others may only be able to join in for a couple of days whilst the convoy (caravan) was relatively local to them.
If the whole thing was organised as a 'travelling' event, with frequent locality stopovers (to coincide with concentrated participant areas), there would be no insurance or outside legalities incurred, just a good old BBQ get together with like minded people in different areas.
Perhaps if the whole thing simply circumnavigated NSW, members from other states would be able to join in and participate when the convoy neared their district. Half the fun would be smaller convoys travelling from concentrated areas to the local get together, eg Sydney convoy to Mudgee for example, Join the circuit to Tumbarumba or somewhere down that way, meet the Victorian convoy from Melbourne, then across to Balranald to see the South Aussie before heading back to Lismore where the Qlders could easily join in before heading back south again.
Sounds confusing I know but it may be worth a thought.
