Star Weekly - Wyndham - 17th January 2024
Jim Sloan and John Jacoby completed the Epic in 4 days: Friday Mar 22 - Monday Mar 25
"All in all, a great concept and a great ride. I would certainly encourage others to do it, but unless they are masochists like me and John, perhaps they should stick to your schedule!" ( 8 days)
"I have mentioned to my colleagues at work I think the route would make for a great adventure tour/journey which we may consider running in the future. (Rapid Ascent P/L)
It does worry me how many people in Victoria have never heard of Hume and Hovell – perhaps it is our job to educate them!!"
