I was planning on doing another dummy run next saturday since a fair amount of it has changed.

If anyone wants to tag along feel free to PM me so we can T something up.

Wouldnt recommend a big night before hand..lol

3rd of December on a Sat. seems like a good weekend to aim for. Its just over a month away so theres plenty of time to get it organised properly providing ppl are interested.

Not inc. stops it would roughly take 3-4hrs. so maybe add another hr or 2 depends on everybody..

The prev. 1 I posted took roughly 3.5hrs taking it easy. :asciidity:

youcould maybe use some of this.. there is some good roads in there

:beerchug: mate. I'll have a look to see how it could be shortened a bit as 3-4 hours non-stop is a bit long for a night cruise.

I don't mind a ferry, but not sure if it runs regularly - especially late at night. Myself and probably the rest of the crew would prefer to keep on sealed and public roads.

Anyway - keep the ideas coming :thumbsup:

Just my 2 cents worth...given it is the Thursday noght before a long weekend, I (and at least 2 others interested in coming) will really struggle to get to any meet point by 7pm as the roads will be FULL of people either heading home or starting out on their long weekend trips...so.....what are the chances of moving the time to about 8:30-9pm??

Good idea HER - I've got a route I'd like some feedback on based on Kroozin's post. So let's start 9pm and aim for about 3 hrs round trip for you fellas and gals including stops enroute :beerchug:

Tbh I don't know how I'd reduce it. I liked the whole thing. There is certain roads which are def. better than others though in that route. It would most likely be out of the way for most but up to 18 is the section I like most.

It would be a great run for sure......but Ive got reservations about how Id go getting home from work and then to the meet point at that time of day....

As Sammy has said.....the roads will be chocca with those coming home from work and going away for easter.....

Another small thing to consider is that double revenue....err sorry...double demerits will be in force by that time too.....
