Hey! You better be quiet or i'll tell everyone about your Monaesque moment at the Caltex :thumbsup:

oops!!! *shuts up*

*giggles quietly on the side*

*cough*

f*kN LIES! i was chattin away to ya :thumbsup: or trying to at least...

Yeah i knew you were turning, but i couldn't legally turn left from the right lane...

Its no big deal, i was only going to the meet to see how many people there were, if there was a lot, i was going to come... Instead, I went back to sleep...

lol!!! so you'd only come if it was a big cruise? pft! wheres the dedication! either way you missed out! :D

Sorry I missed it guys.

I actually did Nasho / Macquarie Pass last night, and just as I got to Waterfall it started to rain. It was quite interesting to drive the rest of the route in the rain and fog, especially on R-Comp semi slicks...

Anyway, didn't get home until 6AM and then slept through my alarm.

It is fun, but NUP.

Best road ever IMO is the Alpine Way in Thredbo. Went to the snow about a month ago and decided to take the long way back. Never been there before and it was a fluke that we hit that road. It's like 74km of REALLY REALLY twisty windy roads. No turnoffs, no line markings, no barriers, no deer, no cops, well paved, no potholes or cracking. You can take the corners wide as you want, as quick as you are comfortable with, but your reflexes must be spot on as you get the occassional car coming the other way. The speed limit is 80km, but in honesty, it's very hard to hit that much because its so very dangerous(massive cliff drops everywhere) and I was caning it in the Ford we hired, ice and all. Took about 1.5hrs all up.

Beautiful scenery, it takes you through the Snowy Mountains Hydro System.

I had a massive smile all the way it was so much fun!!! It's like one of those roads you see the guys testing on Top Gear!

Oh to take the Skyline there :D

Someone organise a cruise to that road!!! It'll be like a 10hour drive all up, but I guarantee it will be one of the best driving experiences you will ever have.

My favourite road in Australia at the moment still has to be the Black Spur in Victoria.

I used to love the Great Ocean Road but the surface isn't quite as good as Black Spur and there's also a lot more traffic (including a lot of arseholes that call the cops on you because you want to drive at your pace and they can't be f**ked using the thoughtfully-placed turn-out bays).

I haven't done the Alpine roads in NSW yet, but by all accounts they're an awesome drive. The NSCC used to do annual multi-day cruises through there before the snow season, and they adore the roads.
