August Cruise - Somerset Dam
Hey guys,
Time for another cruise me thinks! This is what have so far: Date proposed: 10th of August Meet up time will be 10.00 -10.30am. Meet up will be up at Mt Coot-tha up past the lookout. Instead of turning left to go up to the lookout, turn right at the round-about and we shall be congregating at the top of the hill on the left. There is a fair amount of room for cars as people usually park there to go bushwalking etc. Here is a pic of the meet-up point, we'll be meeting where the little orange man is.. After talking smack for 10-15mins, well be taking the voyage down the opposite way down, past all the local TV stations. Once weve hit the bottom, well be turning off and heading through Bardon & Redhill and onto Waterworks Rd to Mt Nebo & Mt Glorious. Turning right at the Fernvale-Kilcoy Rd following that for 31.9kms. Another right turn onto the Esk-Kilcoy Rd going through the town of Somerset past the Somerset Dam for 4.0kms to "The Spit" picnic area. Here we can have just relax, play with the footy/whatever & do a photoshoot. Then its back on the road home via esk. Total driving time should be around 3.5-4hrs, depending on traffic. This includes the drive from somerset to Ipswich aswell... We'll be having a BBQ at Bourbons new place after the cruise, all is welcome!! Oh and dan will be down here aswell So far we have had these people say they are interested... 1. Marc & Tash 2. Davoaust 3. Mad Mat 4. 70NYD - tentative 5. Zapps & Brooke 6. 89sp1.8 7. Gtarone & Lauren (?) 8. Stolzie 9. Bourbs & Kazz 10. Rupewrecht 11. Andrewck 12. Chicaboo 13. Astina Andy 14. Project.r.racing 15. SIlversp20 16. Plutonus 17. Rally Ninja 18. MintPolo 19. Coley 20. Nate Cheers marc
