Event:
SAU's South Cruise 2015

Description:

Our second cruise of the year is going to head south, all the way through the scenic rim to Queen Mary Falls and back to Boonah for lunch.

The route will down past Beaudsert and Boonah, then up the Great Dividing range to Queen Mary falls past Lake Moogerah. We will then head back down to Boonah for lunch at the Dugandan Hotel.

To make our way back to Brisbane we have a few options of nice country roads depending how we feel on the day, and can take a quick trip up Mt French at Boonah after lunch.

Updates updates updates updates...

Decided to move lunch from Warwick back to Boonah, as I feel the extra distance to drive out there (and back) is a bit much.

I'd like to book a table at the pub for lunch, so It would be good to know firm numbers by Saturday

[immelmann]

In. Was there a R32 cruise meet at Dreamworld the other day? I was working.

[thewayweroll]

In 2 for lunch .

[MagicMikeZ32]

There will be at least a couple of Z32's there, but probably not mine. Have to make sure I'm ready for the following weekend.

Cool, will be nice to do an emergency engine out half way up the mountain.

[AndrewK34]

In + 1 as long as I can put the front back together.

No, leave them behind.

[Cadmoon]

No, leave them behind.

So the locals murder them and we can strip the car for parts on the return leg?

[sneakey pete]

Sounds like a plan. Bag a pair of Z's and someones GTR can get new AFMs

[MagicMikeZ32]

Afms for dayz. And coilovers. Z32 coilovers fit r32 gtrs and vica versa.

[Smity42]

Should be there

So is this basically to Boonah, lunch then back? Can you update the route map please. Keen for this. Just need to check distance hence cost of fuel for trip.

[Cadmoon]

This is essentially the new route. https://www.google.com.au/maps/dir/-27.6122542,153.0541389/-28.3419132,152.3716474/-28.0045764,152.680974/@-27.9340912,152.493145,10z/data=!4m15!4m14!1m10!3m4!1m2!1d152.8277965!2d-27.9390385!3s0x6b912cb36e6cb57d:0x1300eef178ff9031!3m4!1m2!1d152.6815149!2d-27.9995002!3s0x6b97282a4fccbd65:0x1300eef157d08a80!1m0!1m0!3e0?hl=en

[R34 VSPEC]

Hi, just wondering what time and where in Boonah will the cruise end up......I live near there so keen to catch up at Boonah

[Cadmoon]

We'll be meeting HERE for lunch around 12ish. We will first be heading through Boonah up yo Queens Mary Falls then back to Boonah for lunch.

[immelmann]

Is it ok for me to meet you Sneaky Pete along the way at Bromelton House road on the west-side of Beaudesert? It means I get to go through Tamborine and is a lot closer to my place.

[sneakey pete]

That's no problem, Ralph will be meeting us in-front of the Caltex on Telemon street aswell. We should be there by about 9:40.
