TUFXRT6 Silver Donating Members 687 Member For: 18y 8m 12d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 04/05/09 07:43 AM Share Posted 04/05/09 07:43 AM Ok the details would look something like this:FordXR6Turbo.com Mt Macedon CruiseDATE: Saturday 6th June 2009 (Please note, date can be changed)TIME: 2:30pm DepartureDESTINATIONS: Western Ring road, Calder Fwy, Mt Macedon (Hanging rock), Mt Macedon (Memorial Cross), Gisborne, Home.DESCRIPTION:This cruise heads west from Melbourne to Hanging Rock Reserve for a photo opertunity (there is a small charge to enter Reserve which I will find out tomorrow). We will then take a short trip Mt Macedon Memorial Cross for another chance to take pics plus walk up to the cross (& nearly freeze) from there its either a easy freeway cruising back into Melbourne or dinner in Gisborne.DURATION: Approximately 3 hours excluding dinner.MEET: Shell Servo on West Gate Fwy west bound 2:30pm (Melways Map 56 H1)BRING: Optional UHF 40 channel CB Radio to keep across road hazards and general chatter. It truly adds to the experience if you have a CB, even if it's a $25 Dick Smith special. Camera for the photo opps and the views.RULES:1. Obey all laws whilst on the cruise; this means no speeding, no overtaking over double lines (no matter how safe you think it may be), etc...2. There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members.3. Use the Buddy system; always make sure you can see the car behind you. This will give people behind you an indication on where to turn to make sure nobody gets lost.4. CB Radio’s; if you don’t have one, follow the maps and directions given out. It is highly recommended to have CB as it enhances the enjoyment of the cruise being able to hear about road hazards and join in on the social chatter.5. Please turn up to the meeting points with a sufficient fuel in your tank and enough time before the departure time.6. During the cruise, please have head-lights on normal beam. It is up to individuals if fog lights are on, but be mindful that in some States, it is illegal to have fog lights on in most situations.7. The Cruise Controller attending the cruise has the final say on the cruise route.8. By attending this cruise you agree not to hold FordXR6Turbo.com, it’s Administrators, Moderators, Cruise Controllers, or Owner responsible/liable for any damage and/or grief sustained (simply; you are responsible for your own actions).CRUISE LIST:TUFXRT6POSSIBLES:RegardsTUFXRT6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didnt snow then & Mount Macedon is not known for its snow, but..... it was really REALLY cold!!! I have moved the time earlier in the day to counter the weather (never a guarantee).RegardsTUFXRT6 Edited 04/05/09 11:15 PM by TUFXRT6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
