Depending on turn-out there may be a silly seat (passenger) you could jump into for the trip.

Kitty and I have had our basic plans change a little so we won't be taking an overnighter from Canberra.

Instead for us the trip will be Sunday one day run....

More details to come...

But? You're more than welcome! From the Canberra side we're planning to use the M7 for "ease" getting around Sydney but that doesn't exclude meeting up enroute and joining!



If anyone planning on joining us PMs a mobile number to me I'll try to send updates our our location so you can meet up without having to just "wait around" based on our guesstimates. (With a 450km trip it's pretty hard to be 100% right on timing).

Sydn ey stop has now been factored in..... Using Thornleigh Maccas as the meet point as it's pretty much tradition...

Based on Thornleigh Maccas being about 300km from our start point and the fact we'll have one stop at least before getting there I would say 10:45 to 11amish at thornleigh Maccas.

Just PM Me a Mobile number and I'll make sure you get a warning as we're approaching (from the start of the M7 for example should give you something like 20-30 minutes notice)

wow.... was wondering how this cruise was going - was the best cruise i'd run with AGT - remember the huge turnouts we got!!
being in TAS its all a little late for me now!
EDIT:
2004

2005


2006 i missed and hadn't been since my daughter was born, which i'm still annoyed at not going as it had been a good show for years after

The 2005 and 2006 Annual cruises (Newcastle is the former annual cruise destination) were awesome. In the 2nd piccy you can see the original gay auto OSP180, and a certain crime fighting super hero in the distance wearing his trademark maroon shorts and black singlet.
Sadly this is the first time in 4 years that I won't be attending any regular NSW cruises in my whole time here. But thanks for the piccies James, they bring back some great memories!
