Interested In a Cruise ?

[55ASI GTI]

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone would be interested in a VW cruise?

DATE: SUNDAY 1 MARCH
TIME: 7.30AM leave at 8am
PLACE: EATONS HILL TAVERN car park underneath top front one for shade

In mind I have from Eatons Hills Tavern meet point over Clear Mountain, Mt Mee, Woodford, Kilcoy, Somerset Dam, Mt Glorious... stopping in there somewhere for breakfast or brunch (Woodford) & coffee on top of Glorious to finish off.

Are you keen?

Cheers,
Heather :)

[shinygti]

When are you thinking of going?

[team_v]

Sounds like a good route.
Can you map it out on google maps for us?

[vdubmotorworx]

Possible.....depends on date and if dirty TDI's are welcome!

[sfb]

How do I get in touch with vdubmotorworx?

[vdubmotorworx]

Click on my name at the top left and it brings you up a option for a PM. "private message".... send me one to say Hi

[Creampuff]

i am keen if the date suits...24th or 25th of Jan?

[jgribben]

Audi's welcome??? (02 s3)

[lacisnot]

Would be keen

[Creampuff]

So, what is happening??

[sandwg]

This still happening? I am keen

[Lito]

I'm keen as well. Is there a set date?

[guile]

if i'm home and if audi is allowed, i'm in...

[sandwg]

Maybe I could just draft up a possible route and see what everyone wants, I can edit it to suit people.

[lukeallison]

If someone sorts out date and time I would be very keen.
I will also help spread the word.

[steve_666]

would be keen to join this

[Sharkie]

Depending on the date I might bring the truck for a run

Looks good - nice and twisty :-)
Any goods spots for a feed along the way?

[Creampuff]

places to eat.....Kenilworth, Maleny, Montville, Woodford. I am free this Sat and Sun

[sandwg]

I'm keen but I won't do the whole route

[steve_666]

i did that drive last week, well to maleny.
think if i come may cut off the top part, will see what happens
Maleny isnt good to get a park and find food plus its expensive, only place i can recommend is the pub near woolworths

[Creampuff]

It's only 3 hours, start early, coffee at Kenilworth, be home for lunch, easy

[steve_666]

not complaining at all that way is a great drive, havent been on Obi Obi for years

[epigoo]

So when is this?

[Creampuff]

I have decided I am going This Sunday. Meet at the BP northbound at 7:15, stop for a coffee at Kenilworth, be home by 1030

[Creampuff]

My son is coming in his Audi A4...that makes 2...lol

[sandwg]

Nathan, the other forum is having a coffee run as well so this will clash. Maybe defer it to a later date?

[Creampuff]

CANCELLED FOR NOW, Sorry lack of interest.

[55ASI GTI]

Sorry all life took over....

[jgribben]

Keen for a sunday cruise!

[Creampuff]

Damn, busy that day. Hopefully I can make the next one( so hard for shift workers)

[Datman]

Hi Heather

If I am not working I will join in the cruise for sure. It is also my birthday 1st March too, so it will be a great way to start the day before enjoying a few frothies Sunday afternoon.

Regards
David

[schnellvaggy]

I'm 90% chance of a run
See you then,
Glen

[55ASI GTI]

No worries guys, see you there, and wont see you there :)

Ive invited a couple of Mini drivers also. Feel free to invite your fellow Euro drivers :)

Cheers.

[55ASI GTI]

[RogerMcDoger]

Mmh, this sounds interesting. Might be nice to tag along and see everyone else.

[jebusv20]

Hey everyone,

I have recently purchased a 2010 polo GTi and am wondering if I am welcome on this cruise? I live on the Sunshine Coast so it would be a great day out for me. I have done this route many times before with the previous club I belonged too (Clubcj). Would be good to meet some VW people!

Absolutely come along, go the polo GTi :P

[jebusv20]

Went out to Mt Mee for a drive yesterday, roads are fine in the wet, no major trouble spots.
We should all be pot hole aware though, they are EVERYWHERE at the moment.

[55ASI GTI]

Absolutely... youre part of the family now :) Catch you at a meet point.

[dsuhiti]

I would be keen...trouble is I am a ex GTI owner, now have a 2011 Megane RS250. I know a few MINI's might tag along but a Frenchie never hurt anyone's ego's haha.

[one4spl]

Hi, dsuhiti mentioned this on OzRenaultSport, so I've signed up just to say I'm coming
:)

(in my '14 Renault Clio RS200 Cup)

[sandwg]

I won't be able to come in my car but I'll see if I can hitch a ride with someone

Where would you need to be picked up from?

[sandwg]

Where would you need to be picked up from?

Thanks. I've organised a mate to give me a ride.

[Water Boy]

Keen to tag along as I'm in Brisbane atm.
Anyone from Wynumm/Manly attending?

[lynnos]

Hello, Thinking about coming along in my 2011 T5 Crewvan if that's okay. With 400nm I promise not to hold everybody up.

[dsuhiti]

So how many people are all in?

[Bigstick]

I'm keen for drive. Haven't driven that route for a long, long time

[schnellvaggy]

[55ASI GTI]

It's looking to be quite a few :D guess we'll find out at the meet point... there's cars from other forums attending too by the sounds of it... a few from Mini club also

See you all at 7.30 at the EH - ready for an 8am kick off towards Clear Mountain Rd

Hoping to see a few people out!

Cheers guys, thanks for coming along..... was a good run - that's a great way of putting it - not too crazy, not too snoozy :cool46: but those damn cruiser motorbikes going up the back of Glorious :facepalm:

The ration of mini's to VWs was greater on this run

Till next time
Heather :party:

[Creampuff]

This should be a bi-monthly event, opinions?

[jebusv20]

This should be a bi-monthly event, opinions?

Almost wanted to say, we should make it a first Sunday of the month thing.
Even smaller groups in the 5-10 range, with emphasis potentially on 4 big cruises a year.
But the biggest fault with this is finding somebody that would be keen to organise so many cruises,
and if the route changes every time, a fair amount of effort would have to go in to that.

[55ASI GTI]

Yeah, seeing Im pretty much a motorbike rider now, car cruiz'n doesnt happen often, but the change to the Golf was awesome !

I'll be in the Golf this Saturday casing a bike ride route ~ will be a later start, like 10am going Clear Mntn, Mt Mee, Maleny, Kenilworth, Obi Obi, Nambour, Mooloolaba... if you'd like to join in (& depart when you like) youre more than welcome :) If anyone's keen, I can give more definite time as to when I'll leave... I'd meet anyone at Eatons Hill Tavern again
