Regular Cruise?¿?

[slip]

Yeah well it stopped you from telling me to go away all the time.

I definately think more small cruises should happen if you guys want them, fortnightly, weekly, gold coast, bris, it all seems like a good idea. The nights events should be decided first though, you dont want 5 guys turning up for a mountain run when its a cruise to the gold coast.

i think a cruise to redcliffe or to bay suburbs be alot better as the goldcoast is getting too much bad attention. just my 2 cents.

[slip]

Redcliffe has been checked out. Mucho coppo presence. Wasnt very successful.

[chaos]

i think what u have to realise is no matter where u go

u will get unwanted presence people see u drive past they just tag along

u should vary the meeting points and routes, if u always have a meet at roma or bwcp these are common places for meets and cruises to begin. its gonna be hard for just a skyline australia cruise or wat not, u will get attention from police as they patrol the M1 like it was a doughnut shop.

also a cruise everyweek could be askin a bit much of people and gettin decent turnouts.

if u have it say every 2nd week may be a bit better

and why is it always the gold coast that u mostly cruise too?

what bout the poor sunshine coast people?

yeh the sunshine coast may be a bit further to travel buts theres no rule saying a cruise has to be a nightly thing

i been to alexandra headlands just over an hour north of here very nice area not many cops at all and plenty of places to meet.

Due to a small mishap at the r31 club cruise today, i won't be there this friday, i have a little panel beating to do, possibly some new brake pads and tyres

[chaos]

what happened?

[warrior_350]

i'll be the hero nismogirl /jk Seriously though if its kept fairly small and everyone meets in an uncommon place (maybe even an underground carpark?, being out of sight would stop most ppl from finding out) then i doubt too many people would tag along. And as to where to go, that could be decided at the meeting place?

[chaos]

nah but u see they dont need to be at the meeting place to tag along they could u see drive past and just follow.

if most have cb radios that could be a good way to keep in touch

[pinto]

Problem with deciding when we go at the meeting spot is some people may come out to go to bwcp and we end up at noosa or something

[warrior_350]

its worth a try just to see how it goes, but if its a large group then people are more likely to want to follow so the smaller the better. besides, it doesnt look like too many people here are interested so i don't think there would be much of a tag along problem. i dont like the idea of a cb arial hanging off my '33

not mounted cb

hand held cb

Andrew and I are currently in talks with the owner and shop occupiers of a carpark on the southside of Brisbane. I'm not going to say anymore cause I don't want people meeting there already without persmission. I will talk to Andrew more this afternoon and get back to you all. It's a great place to meet and I'm wondering if Slip would like to step into the negotiations as well (as the president)..

I'll talk to andrew and get back to you.

[nismoman18]

Hey Pinto, hope the car is ok. Sounds like something went bump in the night??

Anyway, can we set it for this week so we can at least make a start. Can I suggest Roma St Carpark (alongside the grass field area), from about 6.30. We can then maybe have a discussion about places to go. I don't know bris all that well but surely someone does.

Once we do one then we can discuss more, how to make them better, and where we have them etc. We have to start somewhere, and it's not going to be perfect the first time. But it doesn't have to be organised to the nth degree, this is meant to be a casual get-together and cruise. If you want to go somewhere to thrash your car come out to the sprint days.

I'd like to have the venue and time set for tongiht so we can post in the events thread and move this one forward. Please advise if this is too early for you today and we'll set it. Then we can review for next time where and when we do whatever we will do.

Thanks

There is the thread.

If you's are seriously interested in creating a weekly/fortnightly/monthly then you will attend this event and support the idea of creating this carpark as our meeting spot.

[locutus_of_bris]

Ok then people. Is anyone up for a cruise this fri night - 6.30 to 7pm at roma street parklands. If so please post in here (no point making a separate thread at this stage, if it becomes regular then we can go for threads then). Post here if you are coming, thinking of it or can't make it, then we at least know whats happening.

Thanks all

{EDIT} of course we can hang there to wait for people who can only get there later, the whole idea is we actually catch up and get to know each other as well as cruising around. This is a "social" event as much as anything.

[pinto]

I'm definatly out, my car won't be back till saturday at the earliest

[locutus_of_bris]

Well hope the car goes well for you Pinto. Better start planning the 2nd one then

[pinto]

the week after is the 2 fast 2 furious cruise so we've got a bit of time
