Post your thoughts in here for those who went.
I thought it was a good cruise, around about 20-25 cars at the meet point in Croydon. Good drive up to Sugarloaf and then onto Yan Yean followed. Some really good roads to drive through out that way. I saw a few people taking photos so hopefully we will see some shortly. Thanks Joe for the maps, once again they were spot on and all that attended.

OK, first thing. I need to buy a Melways... I got lost wice getting there. I had no map, so I did pretty well.
I caught up when everyone was leaving Sugarloaf for Yan Yean. I was good to finally catch up, I can say I still haven't been to Sugarloaf! Good to see some nice cars there, Effalcon still needs to watch his car and John XR6 needs to swap his wheels! It only took me 1.5 hours to get home (not bad, still no Melways). I was happy with that

Was a very nice cruise, what happened to that guy who organised it, what a loser.
I was spewing I couldn't have my car there would have been some good fun driving around those twisties.I got quite a few pics and 2 videos, i'll try get them up tonight some time. |

It was a good cruise. It was freaking cold though! It was good fun despite our many laps around Yan Yean!

It's a shame I missed it :(
Something's gone bung in my power steering system anyhoo so I went punting around in my gf's mighty Meteor today. We struggled to overtake a milk truck up a steep hill. "He's signalling for you to overtake! Do it!" "I AM OVERTAKING..." |

Awesome cruise, but bloody hell it was cold, some of you might have noticed I didn't hang out of John's car nearly as much as normal lol... Good to see all the familiars again and a couple of new faces!
As for my pics, here are just 2 previews of the 2 cars I shot the most (I'll be expecting PMs from you 2 very soon ;) ). The rest of the pics may be a couple of days away (quality takes time  :evil_laug) so hopefully this should tide you over for a little while!  Alex

Fantastic Day, Maps need a little bit of work on wording but the directions were good, i followed the map completely and got to where i was meant to
Good turnout of cars and some awesome photos taken, i hope everyone enjoyed them selves.
