I have already suggested a cruise up to willowbank to watch the V8's on the 24th of July

Sylox · 24-06-2005, 12:52 PM

If your planing on the V8's as a cruise it'll be a very very early start and a late finish

Duffman · 24-06-2005, 01:19 PM

Ah I wasn't trying to take away from your cruise. Just wondering if any au members up there gonna have their car on show.

Hoops · 24-06-2005, 10:04 PM

I dont mind where we cruise, like i have said before i have only just recently moved up this way so i am open to any suggestions, i only suggested the V8's cause i know it would be a good day and yes i realise that it would be an early start and a late finish, its up to you guys what you want to do and where you want to cruise i am just offering to organise it.

MrsF6 · 25-06-2005, 10:45 AM

Hey everyone, please vote for a date for this cruise so we can get started on organising it.

Cheers

Duffman · 28-06-2005, 11:41 AM

Whats on a willowbank at the 24th I know the V8's but which ones? I always go racing up there so I might be going up that weekend already if so would work out good but if V8's are on no racing for me :( Either way what ever is on Ill probably end up there

MrsF6 · 01-07-2005, 01:51 PM

Ok, well we have hit July and there is not a real help getting a date together yet so come on vote as we need to orgainse something. so far willowbank is winning, but we need to know from all that have put their names down that are interested what date you guys want.

|2aebird · 02-07-2005, 09:04 PM

I think that the 30th is a good date, cause the v8's wont really be much of a cruise and might cost a bit and the earlier dates are a bit too close for some... So the 30th gives everyone enough time to organise and get some money and that way we may even get some more people to come... If you want a hand with organising it i can help out too... Plus i might be able to get some work done to mine before the 30th, hahaha...

Thats cool 30th sounds good, yeah some help organising it would be great as we have just moved here 2 months ago and might need some help with the best cruise route to take etc.

PM Hoops or myself and let us know what you think would be a good cruise route for this.

If anyone is interested in Willowbank V8's we are heading down on the sunday and maybe also the saturday.

Cheers

Mrs XR8

|2aebird · 04-07-2005, 07:19 PM

Ok well i can do the cruise route, do we have a destination yet?! Or do we still need to come up with one?! And do we just wanna cruise or do we wanna stop for a bbq or lunch or go for a swim or anything else like that... Oh and also it would be good to know how long everyone would want the cruise to go for...

MrsF6 · 05-07-2005, 10:35 AM

I think a cruise with a BBQ would be good, it will break up the driving a little and maybe even a stop for a photo.

time on cruise doesn't really bother me, maybe we cruise for an hour or so stop for lunch around 12.00ish then cruise someplace for a photo and cruise back.

We will need to come up with a destination, a park maybe.

Thanks for offering to do the cruise route as we have no idea :nutsycuck nope no destination as yet, BBQ or lunch some where would be good, i think a full day cruise would be the way to go but thats just me

TheSneakiness · 06-07-2005, 10:53 AM

If that were the cruise, I could more than likely be there. I live in the opposite direction though. I could meet you guys down Nambour way.

Hoops · 06-07-2005, 05:58 PM

I dont even know where any of those places are

: but ill come any way, it will be a good chance to meet all you guys and have a few

:

|2aebird · 06-07-2005, 06:29 PM

Ok well if everyone is happy with the location, then i might go for a pre-cruise run and find spots to get photos and all that stuff... How do we want to do food?! BYO or buy a heap of stuff and charge a little bit of money for it... Unfortunately i will not be able to fork out the sorta money needed to buy it all in the first place, as i am an apprentice, hahaha...

borry · 06-07-2005, 06:44 PM

if its out nambour way, ill meet you in nambour somewhere as well, as i live bli bli, the other side of teh highway. im sure it wuoldnt be hard for you to meet up with tom, kenny and myself somewhere ( 3 AU utes... yeewwwww ) and we could possibly stop there for fifteen then continue on till we get to the lunch. i can bring all the food then depending on numbers just say 5 bucks a head or somethign and that can cover drinks *cough* soft drinks *cough* and some snags/bread rolls ?

im keen just give me 2 weeks notice and i can have some of it organised.

Sylox · 06-07-2005, 07:12 PM

To far North for me to attend, but have a good one guys

MrsF6 · 07-07-2005, 09:50 AM

Had a look at how far this is from us and its a four hour drive for us as we live near tweed, bugger. sorry to be a pain but could we maybe see where everyone is and then maybe people up near Brisbane to a cruise and the same for us futher down and then we meet somewhere in the middle for a BBQ? just my thought

Sylox · 07-07-2005, 12:31 PM

Some alternatives guys
Hinze damm (20min from nerang ???)
Wivenhoe damm ( about an hour from dreamworld out past ipswich)

TheSneakiness · 07-07-2005, 12:52 PM

That's what sucks about living up the far northern end of the Sunny Coast, everything good to see is down Brissy/Gold Coast.

I'll see where you guys wanna go first before I make my mind up.

|2aebird · 07-07-2005, 06:52 PM

ok, nah thats cool... i was just making a suggestion, im happy to go where ever, altho i have been to hinze dam and wivenhoe alot lately, lol, but still a cruise is a cruise... Any other suggestions out that way?

MrsF6 · 13-07-2005, 01:53 PM

Sorry, i dont know of any spots to go

:

Hope we work something out as i am looking forward to :eclipsee_ on this one
