hey all

madaz r33 has given me a good plan for the cruise, seeing as we're all from the burnie area apart from him, he suggested that we start in devonport then have a run through some of the back roads on the way back to burnie then cruise through burnie itself. let me know what you guys think

cheers adam

^^ Watch you talkin bout willis? my g/f's parents used to own property at natone, the drive up from Minna road through natone and stowport is sick imo. (or even going towards burnie and turning up the hill as just get into burnie that has the dogs home there, forget the turn off road name) I used to wind my old Rx7 out on some of those straights(although speedo stopped at 180 and i'm not sugesting we do that!) heaps of wicked sweeping corners, its a good drive along that area. Mind you on the very odd occasion an old farmer would be putting around on his tractor, all of the farmers were pretty cool and always pulled to the side asap to let me through. Damo

lol true true..... I think i was thinking of the 'Back back roads'. Still a drive anywhere should be good. The cruise through Burnie should be epic also.

[guesty]

yes, the minna road through natone and upper natone and back down through hamshire/ridgley and back into burnie is a good trip

[Wogboy]

If we want speed, why don't we spend the day at Symmons??

Haha..I think someone is feeling the need for speed again.

[guesty]

i think Wogboy just wants to go to a place where he can't damage his car. ROFL

[wombat_1988]

well i think everyone has decided cruise through burnie and up some back roads. as for speed just doin 100 through some of those corners is fast enough to have some fun. i mean a day at the track would be fun but it's a long way to travel

[guesty]

Track days are never too far to travel

[wombat_1988]

Track days are never too far to travel

with petrol prices and my wage at the moment it is

[wombat_1988]

i spoke to wogboy today and came to the conclusion that we should keep this to exactly what it should be. how to you guys feel about driving from burnie to elizabeth town then back into burnie?

[bwebbie1]

sounds good and going through devonport and ulvie???

[madaz R33]

all good, lets do it, most people on the NW would be moderately happy with the suggestions, it will do for our first NW cruise, Elaborate on further cruises if people show up to this one and its a success.

[guesty]

And we can stop at ETC and sip on coffee and scones?
