LOCATION:Victorian high country
DESCRIPTION:In 2018 and 2023 we ran Raids in a Day which proved to be very
  popular with owners of Citroën A Class vehicles and so another event has
  been organised for 2026. WHAT & WHEN: This event \'Raid in a Day – Vict
 orian High Country\' will be held over the first weekend in December, from
  Friday 04 through Sunday 06 and is exclusive to A Class Citroën vehicles
  (2CVs, Fourgonnettes, Dyanes and Arcadians). HOW & WHERE: We will motor u
 p to Mansfield on Friday the 04 December and stay here overnight. Next day
 , Saturday, we will hit the gravel and use the Mansfield-Woods Point Road 
 to stop in for a pub lunch at the historic Commercial Hotel, Woods Point. 
 We will miss out the shocking piece of road between Aberfeldy and Beardmor
 e and use the Mt Selma Road to go up and over both Mt Selma and Mt Useful,
  before descending to Walhalla and on to Erica. This route has been recent
 ly surveyed, and we can guarantee you a spirited, but not difficult, drive
  (negotiating potholes will be the biggest challenge), replete with pleasa
 nt forest roads and great scenery. Saturday night will be in Erica, or nei
 ghbouring Rawson, with a meal at the Erica Hotel. Sunday\'s drive out of t
 he High Country will be via the Mt Baw Baw Road (more gravel and curves) f
 or a lunch stop in Noojee. ACCOMMODATION: This will be the biggest challen
 ge and will determine just how many people can participate, but we do have
  some options. Day 1 Mansfield: We\'ve negotiated a 10% discount at the Al
 zburg Resort in Mansfield for the night of 04 December. The rooms have fle
 xible layouts including one, two and three bedroomed units so I suggest th
 at some doubling up of cars so that we get maximum numbers and keep the co
 st down. The discount can be only be applied for online bookings and the c
 ode of CITROEN10 needs to be entered at the time you set the date and room
  occupants. To go to the Alzburg\'s booking page click here. And following
  is an illustration of what you will see and what to insert when you are i
 n the Alzburg\'s booking window:     But, of course, participants are fr
 ee to stay wherever they like in the Mansfield area. Day 2 Erica/Rawson: U
 nfortunately, the Erica Caravan Park is full on Saturday night 05 December
 , but we have put a reserve on all rooms at the Erica Motel (Ph: 5165 3252
 ) and you will need to phone them and advise them you are part of the Citr
 oen Car Club. Only 6 rooms, but again they all have multiple bed arrangeme
 nts so double up cars again. Another possibility is the Air B&B, \"Erica E
 scape \" just up the road from the motel, they can sleep 11 and when enqui
 red on the 23 September they are available. There are several other Air B&
 B options close by. The Mountain Rivers Tourist Park in Rawson appeared to
  have no availability, but we have ascertained that this was because the o
 wners had closed it for a week to take a well-earned rest. However, they, 
 the owners, have now agreed to open it and make all cabins, and the motel 
 rooms, available for the Saturday night just for us \'Raiders\'. As everyt
 hing is blocked out online, you\'ll need to either \'phone them on 03 5165
  3231, or email them on stay@mountainrivers.com.au, and make sure you ment
 ion that you are part of the Citroen Car Club. The contact\'s name is Kare
 n. PARTICIPATION: If you wish to participate, it is suggested that you fir
 st canvas your other 2CV buddies and book shared accommodation post haste,
  and once you\'ve secured your beds then please email Dave Rogers on droge
 rs11@gmail.com to let him know of your attendance. Further information and
  trip notes will be issued shortly but securing you accommodation is the m
 ost urgent thing to do. Closing date for acceptance to participate. Note t
 hat if you wish to participate you must advise this to Dave Rogers, by e-m
 ail, by not later than Wednesday 18 November. And also note that for logis
 tical reasons participation numbers will be limited, so it is strongly rec
 ommended that you register sooner rather than later, or there is every cha
 nce that you will miss out. Dave Rogers (CCCV) and Lee Dennes (CCOCA) Even
 ts Co-ordinators.
