TOPIC Description: Sau Sunday Cruise, Sunday July 1st, 12:30pm

Hi all,

As per my EOI Thread, here is the cruise.

Meet Spot: PM will be sent out on Thursday June 28 (eastern suburbs)

Time: Meet 12:30 for 1:00pm depart

Where too: Heading out of the metro area. Total cruise length is around 120km, so a good 1/2 to 3/4 tank of fuel required.

Also, this is a cruise. it is NOT a hills run/midnight run/boy racer run.

The pace should be fun but not fast. I have heard of too many crashes and dickhead actions on cruises of late.

This is to get together to meet up with fellow SAU members and have a nice drive together.

To reitterate: Speeding & Dickhead behavoiur will not be tollerated. If you want to do this, go on a ns.com cruise.

Please also note that anyone who see's others doing innapropriate burnouts at the meet points, tailgating continuously, drifting etc, please report the numberplates to me and they will be reported to the authorities.

Finally, the route has been drawn up, but I wont have a chance to run it before hand. So notes are off the best I can do from memory :P

So post your name here for PM next thursday :)

Lee

keep calm ppls PM's arnt going out till this Thursday 28th/06/2007 this coming week thats the Thursday that hasn't past us yet :(

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
