Next NSW/ACT Drive Day - Postponed to October 25th

Next NSW/ACT Drive Day - Postponed to October 25th

Postby Roddez » Thu Jul 30, 2009 11:43 am

Our Victorian members have really raised the bar as far as drive days go. So, it’s time to fight back and see if we can better them. Given the success of the last trip where we met the guys from Canberra, this going to be another joint drive.

The cruise on Sunday September 27th has been postponed to October 25th.

The delay has been to allow for more daylight and to clear school holidays.

The route that I am looking at for the Sydney crew is west via Bells Line to Lithgow then through Jenolan Caves to Oberon. Following lunch in Oberon, we then head south through Taralga to finish in Goulburn.

The Canberra route heads up through Goulburn, Taralga and Oberon to meet up with the NSW drivers prior to Jenolan Caves. We then stick together to Goulburn.

I would welcome comments, ideas and suggestions. I know that the Canberra boys will have to get up a little earlier but you get home earlier.

Sydney Departure Points:

Point A – KFC Carpark (Cnr Briens Rd & Redbank Road, Northmead)
Meet time from 8:15
Departure Time: 8:30

Point B – McDonalds Carpark (Cnr Windor Rd & Groves Ave, Vineyard)
Meet time 9:00
Departure time 9:15.

NSW/ACT Groups Meeting Point: Cnr Duckmaloi Rd & Jenolan Caves Road - Approx 11:30.

Lunch: Main Street – Oberon. Approx 12:30 – Departure 13:30

Finish Point – Goulburn. Approx 16:30.

Communications: UHF Channel 14

Photography: We need someone in the Sydney & Canberra group with an eye for good pictures and a good camera. I propose that they run ahead and set up at a few locations to take pictures of the cars as they come past. We will also work out some stops along the way and line the cars up.

Timing: The following attachment is the “Flight Plan” for the trip. The times are from Google Maps which I have found to be a little conservative. However, this should allow a little bit of slack should people wish to stop for other reasons.

more km's but the final 200km's will be slabbing along the Hume :? Unless we are doing well for time and decide to take some diversions

I think it is a few more K's, but the roads are a lot of fun. I do have some ideas for a nice deviation on the way home. A real blast over some good country roads, and then back on the Hume and home.
