Mt Macedon Member's Cruise

[Phatboy]

In the tradition of all cruises.... please post wrap up stuff here.

Thanks very much Dan for going to the trouble of doing the cruise notes. A pity about the weather, but it gave us time to enjoy the scenery.

I felt really sorry for the guy in the S15 before we started the cruise. Didn't actually see it happen cuz I was looking the other way, but saw the aftermath

Guess that was a very sobering warning to us all to take it easy, which we surely did with the weather.

Other things of note on the cruise were:

- Muztek showing up to the meetpoint then pissing off

- that retarded woman in the compact SUV doing half the speed limit for 30 mins while gawking at trees

- that sneaky cop hidden away behind some bushes on a side street

- Hamish's front bar

- the massive fog

- The gold-award winning Pepper Steak Pies at Gaffney's bakery in Yea

- Perfect SAU hoodie weather

Was a modest group, but was kinda good in that way, as no-one got lost or left behind.

Sorry Dan, just realised it should probably be you starting this thread.

It rained a bit. Roads never really dried out. Then we hit fog on Mt Macedon. No-one was taking the corners at any decent speed cuz it was slippery.

I had fun today so did Peter.

Pity about the S15...

The weather is the usual Melbourne '4 seasons a day' the fog up in Mt Macedon is unbelievable!

I may have broken something on my GTR - I'm beginning to think cruises isn't for me!

And many thanks to Dan for organising today cruise and route map.

Cheers

Was a good cruise although the weather was a bit crappy for most of it but we did have some good reasonably dry parts. Some of those roads are car breaking suspension flexing HELL!!!! My ass is killing me from some of them! The pies in Yea might have been award winning but the fricken donuts from that food shop were teh aidz!! I felt like i'd just sucked down a doughy sponge full of oil and coated in sugar mmmm yummy

I have 3.1GB of windscreen mounted video from Maccas to the Mountain if anyone wants, it's not the greatest quality (640x480) and it has no audio but it's good to see it from another perspective I suppose.

The Fog at the mountain was real bad, could barely see the car 10m in front of you, not even the lights.

I left you guys on the way back (took the Gisborne exit to Melton) so only waved to couple of you but I had a great time.

PS - bugger bout the silvia too, I only saw him turn the corner and then saw the pole shake but yeah, the thing was farked! I loved those rims too!

PPS - Well done Dan, great cruise and great notes. Thanks for putting the effort in.

[Count Grantleyish]

He broke it, mended it and then broke it again.

Am I correct Hamish?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

haha yeah, i broke it last night and work up early to reattach it, and when we pulled into yea, the other side broke... cable ties FTW

ah well that's what you get for hangin low
