Got to Omeo a bit a go, sitting on the net on Gary's wifi hotspot.

Today was absolute perfect weather with some great roads! Tomorrow is set to be even better!

Some great photo opps and all cars running fine thus far.

Now time to have a meal at the Hill Top Hotel, have some beers and get ready for tomorrow!

Well I just wanted to say thanks to all that came along on this cruise - I enjoyed the good company. I'm plum tuckered out after 2 days of driving some of the best roads there are in Victoria for mountainous scenery and twisties, in my opinion :3gears:

And we had blue skies and sunshine throughout the weekend. Rudiger again was the life of the party and was nice having Jamie and Beth come along as well. We all took turns at leading the group through the twisties and I think I got some good footage. Rusty and Rudiger exhibited their expert prowess at the wheel taking turns at setting the pace up Falls Creek and into Omeo and Rockatansky revved his rocker leading us down Mt Hotham. And I gotta say, some of the views atop Falls Creek, the dam and atop Mt Hotham were just mind-blowing - mother nature at some of her grandest :spoton:

So, just hoping more of you could come along next time - nothing like finishing a day of challenging driving with a hearty country steak, cold beer on tap and engaging and comical conversation over a late night glass of port :thumbsup:

Hopefully have some pics and vid up later :beerchug:

Had a great time up until about 10 am this morning. Nuff said. :surrenderwave:

Thanks Gary for a well organised cruise. Thanks to Mark, Jamie, Russ, Bethany and of course Gary for great company...and your support.

Excellent roads, almost as good, if not better than the Snowies Cruise last year. In fact, Id have to say that the run through to Omeo on Saturday was even better.

Bethany drove home from Seymour. Didnt do a bad job.

Thanks again to you all, and an especially BIG BIG thanks to Rusty for not pushing my car onto the oval at 3am. :turboboink:

Awesome cruise team,

Got home in time for dinner. No issues with my car over the entire event so I may hit the drags again this year after all. Here's my gallery of shots from my new phone.
