You mungrel, I was just coming in to say the same thing, hahaha

Ok folks time for a cruise I rekn, Australia Day weekend is out for me I'll be out of town but just about any other weekend would be fine.

Seeing as the weather is nice how about heading over to the island, we could detour through the Yarra Valley hill country first then out to Phillip Island. Another nice long one LOL, unless you would prefer something a little shorter with more stops and sight seeing, then I'll get the local pensioners club to give you a call : jk (maybe)

How does that tickle ya'z??

:( My beast is still off the road as i've been slack and got a new toy (CRF450R "09, sweet bit of gear).
Hopefully have the ute done soon and start going on somemore wild cruise with the F6 crew. :

Sounds good guys... I have actually been working around in my area meeting a few more ppl from the northern suburbs who own F6's. We have about 10+ F6's coming from my team... Want this one to be bigger than the first hopefully.
Lets get the date set as these guys need at least 1-2weeks notice for the cruise...

Here is a link to the map for the cruise folks, the only thing that I might change is the meet times to 8am with the departure at 8:30am, so an extra half hours sleep LOL

http://www.whereis.com/#session=NTY=

Now, do we have lunch at a local pub/club or find somewhere for a BBQ, I think if we're bringing friends/partners maybe a BBQ but I'll leave it to you all to decide. This would probably be a light/medium degree of difficulty so partners and family could be ok if you like, I know some of the guys wanted to bring kids along so it should be ok I think, but of course I'll leave that to each of you to decide for yourselves.

I'll make some enquiries in the meantime for somewhere to take us for lunch, I need as close to exact numbers as possible, so even if you're not 100% at this point could you please include your name on the list.

Stef

LOL ok juist checked that link, even though that's how the site told me to do it LOL, doesn't work.

Anyway, the travel route will be Epping Plaza to Wittlesea, onto Yea, Mansfield, then back out on the highway before we turn off for Bright which is our final destination.

If anyone wants to check the route just plug the towns in and it will show the roads we will be travelling along, if anyone knows how to copy it and paste it then please go right ahead coz I don't have a clue how, sorry.

Bright is the final destination for the cruise bud, put epping in the fiorst window and Bright in the last, then add each stop in the "add stop" windows, it will then map out the cruise route and you can enlarge it to see more specific details.

Hope that helps :
