This will be an on-road only cruise. It will be a fairly relaxed drive via Mt Dandenong Tourist road and Monbulk Rd. The main aim is to get to know each other and enjoy some classic Subaru driving. Budget for 2-3 hours for the full cruise

Sorry to be picky... hmm long drive from Vermont to Lilydale 24 hours 10 mins? which should take approx 30 - 40 mins depending traffic.... hmm.... you meant 12:40pm! ;)

Hope this event above is successful.
Cheers

Sounds good

Ill meet you guys on the hill somewhere, seeing as the cruise goes past my house. Maybe around one tree hill rd, I can wait on the side of the road and should be able to slip into the convoy traffic easily and safely there.

Whatever works for you Dave. Just bear in mind that the times are approximate, and the quantity of cars could be from 1 (just me :D) to 30 odd

Oh, and BTW, if your Suby is sick on the day, feel free to come in whatever, as long as it has four wheels and can keep up.

I'm really hoping to be there with ruby in full rego, a new set of treads (roadies :( but still good) and this morning I woke up with an urge to actually fix up one of the MPFI's to get rid of this damn carbie jerry-rigged setup I have atm.

Wonder if i can get it done in that time... otherwise I could maybe steal "sunnie" for the day :D

See you there.

Cheers

Back on topic, I'll be there either in Ruby Scoo as pictured below or in Sunnie, gail's new brumby. Sunnie will be in attendance regardless of ruby scoo being there.

I've seen the map on the computers at uni, but the one at home doesn't load this map even after re-freshing the page or waiting longer... It just doesn't show up.

See you all there.

Cheers

I took it off so we dont get any nasty surprises. I can PM Google map coordinates to all who need them. Oh, and I'll bring plenty of map print outs as well.

That would be good. I need to work out the easiest way there for us as we'll probabily be heading from benders on the day.

Cheers

Bennie

PS, good idea about the map too.

I will be attending this. Hopefully i'll have the lift kit and 27's on by then! I know i don't need them for a road trip, it'd just be cool.

Yay! Just got two new tyres and a wheel alignment. Now Ruby Scoo's looking good again. Having grey sunnies on the rear and black flaking steelies on the front made her look a little shabby.

Can't wait... now just to save for a tank or two of fuel for the drive :p

Cheers

Bennie

PS, might give her a bath tomorrow... that'd make two since december...

Hey GT, could you please PM me that map? We'll probabily have a Nav man or something of the like, but I also prefer to have a hard copy too. Or if you want you could post it to me. I can PM you my addy if that suits you better.

Cheers
