A LITTLE NONSENSE NOW AND THEN IS RELISHED BY THE WISEST MEN.  Roald  Dahl

Calling all adventurous librarians.

It is time to heed the call and make plans for Biblio Turismo 4.

The “Bat Out Of Hell Tour”

The most exiting public library activity of the year.

Where we visit rural public libraries, share goodwill, break bread and provide opportunity for publicizing libraries in a positive and unusual way.  All  previous tours have been a great success with feedback from as far away as New York.   

BE

"Like a

Bat out of Hell

AND
 Be gone when the morning comes"
  

Departing Gosford on November 5 and heading to Katoomba the long way round via Mudgee, Parkes and Blayney.

 
"I can see myself
Tearing up the road
Faster than any other boy has ever gone
And my skin is rough but my soul is ripe
And no ones gonna stop me now"

You can come on a motorbike or by car.

If you want to come just email me.

Gosford City Library hosts the event with the help of fellow Biblio Turistas.

Sponsorship welcomed.

We will suggest accommodation options and help organize meals.  

I’m gonna hit the highway like a battering ram
On a silver black phantom bike
When the metal is hot and the engine is hungry
And were all about to see the light

NIGHT IN KATOOMBA

And wherever you are and wherever you go
Theres always gonna be some light
But I gotta get out
I gotta break it out now
Before the final crack of dawn

The itinerary is based on legal speed limits. No one is ever left behind. Check out our web site and flicker to see what we have done in the past.

It is on rain, hail or shine.

Again their will be a commemorative T shirt and you never know who you might meet on the way. We have been greeted by Federal Parliament Ministers, Lord mayors and cute librarians, the women were very nice too.

You can come for all or part of the trip. Or just meet us in  the evenings for the end of the road dinners. We hope to have a nice dinner organized on the Saturday night at Katoomba. If you just want to come up for that we would be happy to see you.

On Sunday morning you can make your way home to your loved ones…….or just keep riding like a BAT OUT OF HELL

Ill be gone when the morning comes
When the night is over
Like a bat out of hell Ill be gone gone gone
Like a bat out of hell Ill be gone when the morning comes
When the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlights shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
Ill come crawling on back to you
