How the hell do you get something couriered to Omeo on a Sunday?

Hahah slow morning trainer? Get some coffee ASAP.

I know adies windscreen is cracked. I assumed dre would have finished the job off not just fog lights.

Well it was magic. You know something is good when someone announces over the radio they are already thinking about when they can do it again when it aint even over yet :roflmbo: So, I really want to say thanks to _Velocity_ and his bro, and Adie and dre for making it so fun.

We had dream run - good mates, great cars, awesome roads (and hardly anybody around to hold things up) and brilliant weather :thumbsup:

I dunno, had a hard time sleeping thinkin about me foggies last night dre :roflmbo: And _Velocity_ mate, heard from your male model bro you ummm like him to have close ups of corners (many corners apparently) :drivingalong: And Adie, great to have your lady charm on this cruise to liven things up :sungum:

dre had his Hero going and gave me his stick (did I say something wrong :roflmbo: ) so hopin to put up some pics and a vid later :ielh:

So hoping some of you can make it next time and maybe to the next biggie which is the Snowies Cruise later this year :spoton:

Man, this cruise sounded like a blast! (a side from stone chips, etc).

Really disappointed that I didn't know.

Hopefully there will be another one like it soon. I'll definitely be interested in participating.

So did you have any snow/sleet/ice? Shame about all the softies, great that you still had a good time.

Any outlandish drunken behaviour or is it all 'what happens on tour...'?

I tried to entice them tab to stay over in my room with me trusty bottle of Penfolds Tawny Port but everybody had to have their "beauty sleep" after a couple of sips :roflmbo: Yeah yeah something about driving for 6 1/2 hours :roflmbo: All up I did (probably similar for the others) 957km round trip door to door and 12 hours 43 mins in the saddle over the 2 days :thumbsup:

Saw a teensy bit of snow atop Mt Hotham but nothin to write home about - roads dry as. But what's more, thinkin we permanently make it a Sunday Monday combo cos on on the Sunday saw all the motorcycles and push bikes coming down the hill from Falls Creek on the way home and pretty much nothing going our way up the mountain. Same for today - it was driving nirvana just about :drivingalong:

Nah - everyone well behaved. We needed some of you fellas to join us so we can have some fisty cuffs a happen :nono:

:beerchug: mate.

He told me he has never been so scared in his life lol. That's what you get when you're trying to catch dre when he isn't actually in front of you! :biggrin:

It really was a great weekend. Perfect weather, great company and absolutely no traffic until we hit the Black Spur coming back this afternoon. :spoton:

Next year I'll make sure I have some decent brakes so I don't stink out anyone behind me LOL :nod:

Props to Gary for organizing a great cruise for us. :clap:

None at all mate. There was some fog when we left Omeo this morning but apart from that it was clear sunny skies and a nice cold ambient temp for the cars.

Can't wait for the video!

PS (sorry for the double post)
