Lord Cyric Just sit back and enjoy the ride...!

Were going to be at Gosford on Sat night so where would be the best place to wait for you on the old Highway?You could wait for us at the intersection of Peats Ridge Rd & Old Pacific Hwy... sometime around 10:30-11:00am... but that all depends on how long it takes for us to down a gourmet pie & coffee at "Pie in the Sky"!

Two major points for those attending:1. PLEASE top up your tanks before you get to the meeting point in Berowra. It would be a major detour to Cessnock or Singleton if you needed to refuel along the way. Consider your fellow cruisers by doing the right thing... 2. Bring along a CB Radio. Handhelds are perfectly fine and are reasonably cheap these days. It makes my job of directing everyone during the cruise so much easier, plus the banter is just hilarious. If you need help acquiring a CB, please PM myself or Cro.Oh, and let's pray for some good weather on Sunday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyce and I take them whenever we go shopping so I can track her when she gets lost ... saves heaps of time.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get Joyce to find a nice black one for you, to colour co-ordinate with your GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
