Huh? Ah, when did I drop off the list??

You were never on it Steve. There's no post in this topic from you saying you will be coming

Ok,
General consenus seems to be to cut the gravel section out of the cruise. I agree with the route change proposed by Ric. If we keep the start at 8am, I am guessing we would be all done by 12pm at the lunch stop! Home by 2-3pm, just in time to hit the car wash!!! And, more importantly, miss all the bottlenecks created by Sunday arvo drivers.

[Ric]

Actually, noone else has seen it yet, I PMd it to you Mark.

Heres what I suggested: Healesville to Maroondah Reservoir

[Kekotic]

Okay so with that route Ric, does that mean no BBQ now?

[Ric]

There are electric bbqs at the new proposed end point

So, just to start the prep:

Day or two before:
1. Full tank of fuel
2. Clean windscreen
3. Correct tyre pressures (and spare)
4. All fluid levels checked (oil, brakes, clutch or auto trans, cooling system, washer water)
5. A good wash (shampoo, clay, polish, wax or what ever)

No excuses to turn up at the start point without adequate prep!!! If you do, your punishment will be to drive the Fernshaw leg to Marysville!!!

[Kekotic]

My prep has started weeks before!
Installed my rear swaybar + endlinks today, among other things

And this time when people do clean their cars make sure they don't do it at 9pm in darkness like the guy last time who had missed spots on his car

Rightio - I think I said if it was on the 17th in the other thread then I'd be on it. Guess I just assumed that would carry across...

So, for the record... I'm in...

[castek]

I lowered and put new wheels on mine to prep it

Love the new route Ric , the only way it could get any better is if we started and ended at my place!

Ok Andrew, I'll have bacon and eggs, with nice fresh brewed coffee and 2 slices of whole grain toast for breaky.

For lunch I'll have a couple of sauages, BBQed, a beer to wash it down.

I guess we had all put our orders in before he backs out of the deal .
