Bowler Posted August 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Hmmm...looking online for pubs...seems to be not too much being advertised. So, going to go for a scouting mission (maybe Sunday). If anyone wants to come with, more than welcome. Might be necessay to even go over the route too.

Bowler Posted September 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 (edited) OK, just got back from what i can honestly say was an awesome drive - weather, traffic - all going sweetly today. but one small issue i've come to recognise is that it was all over, far too quickly. thus i'm thinking about extending the cruise route - instead of back up the black spur, continue over the mountains and come back past the upper yarra and the like...would add the necessary bulk to make it a great day. Also, i scouted out the catering, and came accross the Grand Hotel, in healesville. looks like it serves counter meals - i'll ring up later this week to find out capacity and prices, etc... Thats all for now folks p.s. the road from toolangi to healesville, is (as i discovered) very, very heavy on braking. of course you don't have to attack the road if you don't want to, but just be aware that make sure your brakes aren't on ther way out either... Cheers Andrew ps - anyone intersted, pm me so i can add your names - NEW ROUTE - http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=d&sad...781403&z=10 Edited September 10, 2008 by Bowler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johno Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Hey Andrew, got some bad news :) I wont be able to bring the corolla on the cruise. Due to current work on the lil beast it wont have doors, lights and bumpers. Could still drive it, talk about weght reduction for the car. Might keep up with a 4age, lol! I'm still dam keen on coming on the cruise but i might have to bring the Blue whale. Unless that is i you got a spare seat in your car for me?

Johno Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) I told my gf about the cruise and she's coming, so I'm going to take my falcon on the cruise. I would take the rolla but its in more pieces than the previous pic and stripped back to pretty much nothing now.
