pipster11 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Hey guys More details to follow but i'm trying to organise a cruise for the 26th June Meeting place is going to be Kmart car park (nearer to autobarn tho) Destination: Sideling (why not, they have also redone some corners for targa too) Anything is welcome - boostcruising members will also be coming so hopefully we get a decent amount of ppl showing up (do not attend if this bothers you) so who wants to come?

pipster11 Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 someone on boost brought up that the sideling gets no sun in winter and they had a cruise through there in winter before and some ppl struggled staying on the road so we might try and avoid that looking like just cruising up the west tamar, over the batman bridge, chill there for a bit and come down the east tamar also going to have a mini-meet soon to discuss the route further, probably this weekend in town somewhere Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320000-lonnie-area-cruise/#findComment-5226151 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sav man Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 east coast has been done to death, why not go up and around cradle mount? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320000-lonnie-area-cruise/#findComment-5226176 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXAFTW Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) if everyone drives sensibly and obeys the road rules, there wont be any drama on the sideling, if people insist on driving like hero's then there will be issues wherever the cruise is held. and considering what happened recently in nsw after an sau cruise, i think it would be appropriate to keep it tame. sav man i agree about the cradle route, lots of good driving up there aswell, might be too far for some though..

pipster11 Posted May 11, 2010 Author Share Posted May 11, 2010 thanks for the input guys if we try and have a small meet soon i'll bring a map and we can discuss where to go, where has nice roads, where isn't too far and all those things if we go up and around the tamar (to the batman) its got a couple of corners but its just nice cruising around there Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320000-lonnie-area-cruise/#findComment-5226264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NISSANGTS Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) I agree with savman and bxaftw,don;t let a bit of rain or wet roads wreck a cruise.[every one should drive to conditions] I drive up and down the east and west tamar every week [what a boring drive] He what about frankford road to westbury turn off then to osmaston,golden vally,mole creek,king solomons mines,paradise back to sheffield and the back road to e/town and back to launny any way u like. Or somthing simmilar. nissangts Edited May 11, 2010 by NISSANGTS Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/320000-lonnie-area-cruise/#findComment-5227367 Share on other sites More sharing options...
