Fear not, John - that lot will be the "roller coaster" express.... any FB's tangled up amongst them will get dragged along by coat-tails...

If, it's going to be anything like what we saw of the arrival and departure at Cowra..... with Bathurst only 100 km's to the north - and some of them taking on the mountain - I was surprised that they had not got enough of their jollies up there..... Cowra is still putting the furniture back on the street where it belongs .....

And, there were a couple of FB's leading that procession......

I ponder on just how many "policeman's ball" tickets were purchased over that long weekend... and, on double demerits..

frats,

When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Brisbane to Hervey Bay or Byron Bay to Hervey Bay?

Since a big number of cars will be going in the same direction (UP) to get there,
this would be a good chance for a super cruise with as many cars as possible meeting up somewhere for the last leg.

Your thoughts?
Any more thoughts on this?
Just so I can plan to meet up.

We're getting there on Wednesday but could head back out a little ways to meet up with everyone for the Friday trip in. Either way we will try and get to a good viewing spot for picy's or video of the cars coming to town.

With a 2pm check-in, I was planning to leave north Brisbane (Caboolture area) around 10am.
Happy to tag along with anyone going around that time.
