Yeah I've seen that and was keen on going but it's a bit early for those of us doing afternoon shift. If you cruise the freeway after then I might come.

So finally drove the Archeron Way and it's a really good drive - I mean really good. But farrk would be good if my taxes went to sealing it all the way :roflmbo: So you can't do it end to end if you're afraid of dirt roads and the dirt road was more potty than Bill and Ben the Flower Pot Men :roflmbo:

But it really is still worth doing it to the edge of the sealed road - there is are really great photo opp there by the river.

So here's a proposed route for the Archeron Way Cruise:

Sunday 10am leave Diamond Creek Maccas. Lunch at Healesville about 1pm. Finish at Pakenham about 3pm. It's better if the route is done that way rather than the other way. We do the Black Spur twice on this route as well - it's nice scenery :thumbsup: Wanted to keep the cruise a bit shorter - so decided not to do Reefton Spur and Marysville.

There is 5km of dirt road near Mt Donna Buang included but it's well maintained and smooth as a baby's bottom so nothing to be scared of there. I personally drove it and couldn't tell the difference between it and the sealed road (except for the traction control coming on a few times :innocent: )

Anyone interested? :drivingalong:

Well, I was thinking Sunday 30 October. I won't be able to join in if we do it earlier due to work.
