Well, due to my busy "playing with carbon fibre, rallying and fitting hair dryers to hair dresser's cars" schedule, the only weekend I have free prior to Chrissy is 18th & 19th December.
I'm happy to hold a working bee on cars/bbq/swim/pissup at my joint if anyone wants to get their finger out (under orders from swmbo, no shit heaps or broken down cars are to be left at my joint to be worked on though).

I've got work commitments now that we r short a chef

[htgsr]

Im gonna be in NZ maybe we should do a cruise at a less hectik time of year?

[MDK87]

Ok, sorry guys, I haven't been able to log on because I have no internet atm and probs won't until the cruise either so I'll get someone else to watch the thread. Jamie is organising a route for me. It will be a full day southside cruise, and we might even cross the border, tbh I'm not really sure, I'm leaving it to Jamie. Can you guys post up your name if you are coming? Cheers.
Whats happening with the cruise on the 19th LJ?

I'll be there either in my VR4 or CBR250, xjokux should be there in either CB Lancer or Yamaha FZR600. Marek and his bro should be there in their E8 MR's.
Please let me know as soon as you can.
My phone number is 0407 993 288 should you need it for some reason.
Oh, and bring a CB radio if you've got one.

I had some other stuff to say but I forget..

Lol, we said that last year haha
You're welcome to, but I think the bigger turnouts around xmas is due to having holidays aligned with each other.

[ZacRVR]

As previously stated my second chef quit I've now gotta do his job to help out and the 19th I have a booking for 40 for a 18th so I'm pretty much a no goer for a while plus my engine is up on a crane covered up in a corner but hey if yas need s feed ya know where to find me!

Hey all, Ive spoke with Mo a bit lately.

Ive got a route sorted for you guys if you want to come down this way.Not sure if i can come along, I may be able to, if I do Ill be in a 34 GTR..(see note below)..No Evo's left between either of our Garage...

will you let me bring my GTR? hahaha

It involves going over Tomewin Rd then connecting to Numinbah Rd over to Nerang-Murwillumbah Rd, this leads you back to the M1 at Nerang and home to Bris etc.

Ill post the remainder of Maps (from 5 onwards) tommorow hopefully.
Total time (approx), from joining Stewart Rd back to M1 at Nerang- 45min/1 hr of driving.

Not sure if some of you remember, but Tomewin Rd is the road that leads into Murwillumbah that has the canefields etc. Pretty open roads, and little to no police on the road (especially the Tomewin side)

Jamie.

[leadfoot]

[MDK87]

Johno I was thinking about that today hey. BOM says there will be a few showers....not really sure.
Cars are water resistant aren't they? Lol
I'm in regardless, but I think we should leave the bikes at home for this one.

Thanks for nutting out the route for me Jamie

[MDK87]

Jamie, are there any stops on the way for rest/food?
Some people get really upset if they don't get to eat! haha

EDIT: And Jamie, is this the full route?
Do we come back the same way we went or a different way?

Sorry been a bit busy, rest will be up by tommorow at least...you go in one way and out another..theres a stop at Murwillumbah if you like...end of Map 5...about 30-40 min drive time after turning onto Stewart Rd from the highway (Map 1)..there is a Bp here too.

if weather is crummy and chances of rain, i'll probably hitch a ride from you. as much as i would like to take my car, it doesn't like the water very much

[MDK87]

Lol yeah yeah man, your car isn't that powerful! Haha jk
If u are though can u bring your camera like last time?

Ok peeps,

1st meet point is for the northsiders at Milton maccas @ 9AM, for 9:30 leave.

2nd meet point is for the southsiders at Yatala BP @ 10AM, for a 10:30 leave.

We'll meet the GC people at Helensvale train station @ 10:45 for an 11am leave and start of the cruise..

Further details by Jamie.

l'll be at all meet points in a white VR4.

I was thinking that the cruise would be a bit longer than 40mins each way hence the late start.

Any questions/ideas let me know

[JAP63]

All the Maps are there now, I added them with the others.
Let me know if anything is unclear.

Jamie.

[xjokux]

thanks for pointing that out... it'll still look powerful!!

not only that but also it doesnt quite stick as well to wet tarmac either

[leadfoot]

just over the hill near super shit auto and zupps. usualy some nice cars rock up. ocasionaly a cruise gets organised to the spot. i hear theres a new one starting at the outback jack out at underwood or something

Whatever Johno! Not my fault you live at 6,000RPM haha jk man relax

Khubner - do you reckon that the ferry rd spot is the place to meet? We'd probs get there around 11..
Does that align with the times when the cars rock up and cruise? Lol
I was thinking something more central would be good, but then it'd be a useless detour in and out via Smith st, unless we go GC hwy, a bit slow at this time of year though, tbh it's probabaly not worth it. I'm thinking you GC boys should make the trek out to Helensvale to save the others getting annoyed perhaps? It's not that far anyway.
Do you know of this spot Jamie, is it worth it? I'm easy either way, it's just hard to keep everyone happy and people get agitated really easily on cruises lol
I was hoping to spend more time driving rather than sitting and chatting, and I'm sure 99% of you feel the same way.
Whatever floats your boat lol I don't really care myself.

My car is getting new tyres and a wheel alignment tomorrow

Do you know if you'll be coming Jamie? If not, I'll park my car and hitch a ride with Dom! haha

Oh and in case anyone was hanging on the edge of their seat haha, Marek won't be coming. Silly bugger booked something else in to do.

Don't forget to bring your CB radio if you have one.
