Re: Moab type thing in Australia anyone?




Just to follow up, I hope you appreciate my position. I ride in the
national park every other day and paddle on the Murray River. Both
involve risk and there is no insurance cover to worry about, but as
soon as I call it an event I have to have permission and that involves
a 10 million insurance cover. My local canoe club just ran their annual
race, so they had similar rules and I had to sign a waiver and pay an
insurance premium to be in the race.

Sounds crazy. You will find the organisers of MOAB would be in the same
position.

When I find out who is coming, maybe you might be able to find someone
who is bringing their kids up from Melb (or down or whatever) who will
be responsible for you. So please keep in touch if you really want to
be involved.

Last year was a great little event.
