Right guys.

This is the real deal.

When: Sunday 24th October, 2010.
Where: Meet up @ WEST BOUND McDonalds on the M4 (Meet in the Red Rooster car park, Petrol from CALTEX and breakfast from McDonalds if you like). Meet up will be at 9.30am for a 10.00am departure.
Destination: Jenolan Caves. Trip is around 140KM from meet up spot to our destination.

Schedule: Arrive at the caves around 12.00 to 12.30pm and find a nice spot to have some food. We will be doing a BBQ, food and drinks can be purchased on the day, or you can bring your own to throw on the barbie. After lunch at around 1.30pm or 2pm we will go and do a Caves tour. The actual cave we tour will depend on what time we finish up with lunch.

Details on the tours and time schedule are available on the Jenolan caves website, [url="http://www.jenolancaves.org.au/index.asp?pageID=78&menuItemID=592"]here[/url]. We will either do the [url="http://www.jenolancaves.org.au/index.asp?pageID=12"]Orient[/url] tour, or the [url="http://www.jenolancaves.org.au/index.asp?pageID=9"]Lucas[/url] tour.

Both tours will run for approx. 90 minutes.

Once the tour is completed we can return to take photos of the cars and discuss the drive home. My suggestion would be to travel along the Bells line of road which will spit us out down in North Richmond and end the day there, that way we can avoid the heavy traffic coming back through the Blue Mountains on a Sunday afternoon.

This is a great day out so you are more than welcome to bring friends, partners, kids or other family members along with you too. Feel free to invite other friends with their cars too, anyone is welcome.

Silly / Irresponsible driving and disrespect for laws and road conditions will NOT be tolerated on the day, any failure to adhere to these simple rules and you will be ejected from the days activities.

For those who are interested. I am going to be organising a private tour of the caves, which will make it a cheaper day - I will need to confirm numbers though so your displayed interest would be appreciated.

This will be a good day !

I won't be along. Had enough of the GWH and I'm not going to drive Jenolan Caves Rd like a caravan towing tourist.

Guys, I am thinking that postponing the cruise for a week might be a good idea. Weather is pretty shocking up the mountains tonight, and is tipped for much of the same tomorrow.

Let me know your thoughts, but I will make a decision by 9.30pm.

Alright guys.

Cruise will be postponed until next week (Sunday 31st October, same time, same place). Sorry for the inconvenience of the late notice, I honestly believe that the risks are too great tomorrow and the day won't reach its full potential with the bad weather.

I hope that all of you that were going to come are able to make the adjusted date next week, and we will see you then.

Dylan
