Australia Day Cruise
....
|
sounds fun, id come
|
Haha damn I can't make this one either! My friends and I have already organised to have a massive BBQ like we normally do, chilling out, eating kangaroo, drinking beers, having a swim, and (most importantly!) listening to the Hottest 100 on JJJ.
Though I'd gladly drive up on the Saturday and stay the night, then drive back Sunday, if that fits in. |
Saturday then Sunday would be fine for me, im not fussed what night we stay
|

|
was just looking at Google maps, as i said, im happy to come up for either night (maybe both if we can get cheap accommodation) although it would work well for me on Sunday night, i could stay with family in Sydney for Saturday.

We're out, saving for a house, and I would be stuffed after driving 10hours down and back again over a weekend...Sorry :(
Cheers Marc |
I'm out too. already been booked in for the weekend by friends to go camping :(
|
I voted for a Sunday Lunch/Cruise somewhere on the Wharf area...
I'd be thinking of driving up to the area on the Saturday staying overnight, being up and awake for the Meet etc on Sunday. Then Sunday arvo/evening heading back to Canberra. If we meet at 10-ish do a short cruise to wherever we can eat, then look at cars some more and are done by 3-ish it all works out well. Thoughts? Sydney Folk? A. |
Sounds like a plan.
|
I've stuck a post up in the ACT section for planning the Canberra contingent for this cruise... Early days but gotta start...
http://www.astinagt.com/forums/showt...448#post180448 Would a Sydney side like to take on the role of coordinating similar meet point ideas etc? Anyone coming from North or Western areas should also step up? A. |
Too far sorry, 10hours to much :(
|
I find the drive along the New England HWY is worth the travel. Lots of great scenery (and plenty of mediocre boring stuff too :p). I like the volcanic rock landscape somewhere around the Guyra Range. There's a big prawn and small Triceratops on the round trip too.

having criven from Canberra to Hervey Bay a few times and to the Gold Coast a heap of times, i can say i rember the prawn ... but have no recollection of the triceratops ... go figure .... then again, i'm not a tourist thing fan
|
The Triceratops (I think it's one of those) is on the New England HWY. But you have to do the round trip to see it and the prawn, ie: NE HWY southbound and Pacific HWY northbound, for instance. Oh, there is the Big Banana at Coffs Harbour too.

heeeey i remember the big bannana, i remember facepalming when mum tried to make it look like she was holding it up in a photo, and they had frozen bannanas on paddlepop sticks coated in chocolate
|
Hmmmmm, a giant fibrelass prawn and a fibreglass triceratops.
When is the death match? |
Don't forget the giant fibreglass Merino!
|
too far ... you guys are whimps! these trips are mad ... and its only gonna cost you 4 or 5 tanks of fuel ($200 the way fuel prices are at the moment) and some accomo food ...
