Hey guys, its been awhile since we have had a decent melb 'cruise'.. if ever?

Date: 17th of March (Sat) (depending on members availablitly)

Time:
Meet at KFC Nunawading at 9am sharp (Cnr Springvale road & Maroondah hwy, melways ref. 48 F9)

Cruise route/location: McKenzie av. Healesville (Maroondah Reservoir Park, melways ref. 270 K10)


Cost is free and although this is a BBQ area I think it may be better if people bought a cut lunch for themselves instead of 20 people standing around a urinated on BBQ with 300 snags. (Not suggesting that Healsville folk urinate on BBQs).

It won't be easy to get lost.. the cruise is just all the way down Maroondah hwy till we hit Healsville. We don't get to cruize often so the people that are keen, including myself, will drive on from Healsville through the black spur to Marysville and then down the reefton spur which will pop us out near Warburton. I will note that the black spur usually has a bit of traffic flowing through it, although, the reefton spur does not.. and it is not a walk in the park at all and is windy as all hell. It is suggested that you have stiff springs and balls of steel (balls of steel not compulsory).

So fill your tanks and bring some mates.. hope to see you all out there. smile.gif
I'd say wash your rides but..... the car park in Healsville is gravel..

Sounds great

This could be a great chance for me to have my revenge on my camera

Wouldn't be able to drive my car on the day as will and thinking of getting my car fixed with NEW brakes and the rubbing sound i keep talking about.....

I am up for it as the camera man if someone could give me a ride

Regards

Andrew

haha contrary to popular belief (ahem xplosv/fractal) i was not bitching about organising cruises all the time. i wasn't being serious tongue.gif

but good to see you taking the initiative fractal!

probably too soon to have my car back by then. will come shot gun tho if anyone will let me ruin their power to weight :oops:
dragonfly

That way, you have a deadline to work to - bwahahaha biggrin.gif
fractal
Yes you are a pain.

What initiative? Meet, cruise, eat, cruise, go home.. this thing plans itself biggrin.gif
xplosv
Unfortunately I'm out.
That weekend is the Shannons Historics and Phillip Island. The very reason I live is to attend that so I'm out.

I'm with the Godfather of melb though, saturday 17th would be ideal I reckon.
scragley

iroar

fractal
Hmm it always works this way huh.. one person can come one weekend and the other can't and visa versa.. Well the date is flexible thats why I put 'depending on availability'..

I think the international motorshow is on the 10th & 11th anyhow..

So hows everyone looking for the 17th O march? Sorry scragley..

We can't go all the way out to healesville and not do a twisties run smile.gif
ricjames
17th would be sweet for me....
dragonfly
17th is still good for me, but it IS on the same day as qualifying for the F1 wink.gif
ricjames
....i wonder if the F1 commitee would let us do a couple of hot laps of Albert Park - that would be unreal!!!!!
dragonfly
hehe - steve, why don't you go ask ya mate ron walker smile.gif
wokstar
i work opposite albert park and did a lap the other day.

mainly cos i got trapped as they closed off some of the exits. still it feels awesome cos all the barracades/stands/fencing is up.

feels like your a race car driver!!!

....apart from the fact i was in a corona station wagon tongue.gif

dragonfly
hehe - tell him I said hi!! He has a nice place too!!
Also, don't try to get him to lure you to the dark side with his v8-style antics!!! biggrin.gif
fractal
Is there anyone else enthusiastic about this cruise?

If so, speak up now.

If not then I think this meet should be postponed due to, (sad to say), lack of interest.

Peace
dragonfly
hmmm - looks like not many people are attending this one?
Maybe try again when a few more members can make it (eg ricjames, kato gt)...possibly a sunday? Be good to have it in autumn though - i love this weather!
Don't get too upset fractal...we know you tried, and we all love ya smile.gif
Wokstar is still going to abuse you, though. biggrin.gif
