Rudiger All round good guy! Lifetime Members 1,122 Member For: 16y 6m 6d Gender: Male Location: Greenvale, Victoria Posted 10/12/10 12:14 PM Author Share Posted 10/12/10 12:14 PM (edited) I think over all, ""birds of a feather", in other words we go on these cruises because we all have the same type of car. That being said, they are public roads so we really can't stop anyone joining in.I'll mirror what has been written already and say that we are "civilised" as Rusty put it. (Ok, not me, but the rest of you are.) As long as they arent d**ks, they should be fine. That goes to say that none of US are d**ks which I am sure most of you will agree is not 100% accurate all the time lol. So I have no prob at this stage.So just for the list there are an extra 2 plus another 1, am I right? Edited 10/12/10 12:15 PM by Rudiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tickets will be $5 each or 3 for $10 and it's a good way to help give something back to those less fortunate than us - certainly who have not had a chance to own and drive the sort of cars we have the privilege of doing. We hope you will be charitable And I think it's still a Christmas lunch of sorts up the top of Lake Mountain in the bistro there - but we'll see how we go progress wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crap range for tx but wud be okay for rx chatter Try Tandy or Super Cheap. Under $30 they are mostly noname brands. But Uniden is okay. To be honest the Tricky Dickies I have are pretty good but not sure if all Dick Smiths do CBs nowadays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudiger All round good guy! Lifetime Members 1,122 Member For: 16y 6m 6d Gender: Male Location: Greenvale, Victoria Posted 11/12/10 03:52 AM Author Share Posted 11/12/10 03:52 AM Hi everyone.Just checked on Vic Roads site and no major works scheduled for anywhere near where we are going.The forecast for tomorrow is schattered showers but I have viewed the synoptic chart for the Vic and SA Coastline and there doesnt appear to be much of a cloud base rolling in so I think while it may be cloudy, we should be ok as far as rain goes.As fas as the cruise is concerned, its bascialy as listed in the first post.If we are running on time we will be having lunch on top of Lake Mountain. As mentioned Kiosk/bistro will be open or you can bring some lunch. If people wanna stop an Marysville and grab a bite, feel free to and then just catch up to us on top of Lake Mountain.As per Garys message, I have obtained an ArmourAll Care bucket worth about $40 to be raffled.Gotta print off some maps now and I have to say guys, I am quietly pooing myself. I hope you all enjoy the cruise and we all get to Warburton in one peice.I will ask one thing from everyone though. If at the end of the day you werent happy with something, just PM me rather than keep it to yourself. This is a steep learning curve here. Luckily Gary is an awesome one to follow.In the morning I will check the weather for over there and see if its pissing down or not. Im still happy if it rains. Others may not be.See you all at 10.30.
