[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hi Guys,
Any cruises planned in/around Melbourne in the near future?[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]hey there Dave

yep, i'll most likely be planning one for late January/early February. nothing set in stone, but we night head down to the Portsea Pub from the usual meeting place in Glen Waverly.

There's usually about 4 Melbourne Astina cruises a year - it all depends on demand and if i get round to organising one!

what side of the city are you from?

cheers

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Sounds good!
I am west of melb. Werribee actually (yeah, I know. I don't need 2 b reminded by everyone I tell that we have a **** farm there!)
How many cars go on these cruises?[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]LOL as long as the breeze doesn't waft the smell over my way (Ringwood) i don't care :D :p

we usually get about 10 cars turn up at the meeting point - we've had as many as 14, and as few as 5 - it all depends on wether people are working during the day (as it's usually a day cruise)

[color=#8D38C9:post_uid0]Hey guys,

I know u won't be having a brisbane cruise in the near future obviously but I will be in Melbourne (Glenroy, Mt Martha, Werribee) in late january - let me know the details - I won't have the Astina tho .... I might be able to make it maybe in a FTO but hey at least the SP20 will be in spirit!! hehhee Let me know anyways! :D[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Welcome Asterix,

Mate, where is Werribee in relation to Ballarat??

Adam[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Hang on,

I got off my asre and looked it up!

Adam[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]yeah...a cruise sounds great... how bout before mid jan, because my car goes in for the front bar then... don't want to be cruising too much with the new bar on and without the car bra!!

portsea pub is a great idea... even a bbq down at sorrento is good fun...decent beach, next to the conti too![/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Mid Jan would be good as I will be in QLD in late Jan/eraly Feb.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#3A6EA5:post_uid0]As always, organising a cruise turns out to be very labourous...

Just got back from Anglesea Yesterday after a nice two week vaction, but would be up for a cruise anytime. I have not booked myself up for much for Jan/Feb, so if someone is going to take charge and suggest some dates (Dan U R really good at that mate) and map a route... :)[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]welll ....

since its kinda hard for Dan to organise a cruise at the moment, I reckon its about time for me to do one. *I've played a part in planning most of the cruises i spose.

[i:post_uid0]* waits for dan to get defensive ... *[/i:post_uid0] :p

Unless of course any1 else wants to have a go ??

Dave[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]sounds good dave. ill be up for one! im off to Qld from the 11th to 19th a feb tho so sometime before or after then

cheers mike[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]LOL @ dave :p

Well there was a plan to have a combined cruise between us and PGA (Pulsar Group Australia) and a couple of other clubs but that has kinda fallen by the wayside for the moment.

Due to my current circumstances, someone else is more than welcome to organise one :)[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]how bout a social gathering somewhere central to everyone :P
where are you again dave? elsternmwick? brighton?

cheers mike[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]yup, thats the general area.
i'm in hampton.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]well could be a gooer for a social gathering/bbq then a small cruise afterwards perhaps :) that way everyone can catch up with each other astina clad or not

cheers mike[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Can we make it some where on my side of the bay?? I gotta drive an hour just to get there...

Adam[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]How about Willi beach?
Not far from the lads down south, and not that far for us in the east... just a suggestion... but could also have a couple of good pics taken of the group going over the west gate bridge?[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]OK, seeing as I'm a new resident in VIC I'm gonna have to ask where that is. I've got the Melways so I just need to be pointed in the right direction.....

Thanks Bill

Adam[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]heheh ok guys. can we get an idea on numbers and a meeting point? cuz we have people possibly coming form ballarat and out west i was thinking that somewhere central like daves place could be the go later on in the day. then maybe even a cruise later in the evening :P

cheers mike[/color:post_uid0]
