Discussion: SE Qld Drive II Dates

So who's up for a SE Qld drive sometime before Christmas? I'm thinking south of Brisbane this time.

What dates suit you if you're interested? How does a Sunday morning sound?

16th November and 7th December are out for me.

If possible, a Saturday would be great, as..

I for one would seriously consider the hike up from Sydney if possible as it's only around 11 hours if you keep within the standard speed_limit+10km p/hr so I'd drive up say on the Friday night - gets two or three hours of down time, and then cruise w'yall Saturday, then some more down time, and cruise home Sunday.

Any other Sydney folk interested in a convoy north with me? I like the idea of two or three RX8's being seen on the open road cruising heal to toe!

Or a co-pilot even perhaps ( no smokers sorry ).

Saturday afternoon is a possibility - give Dez a chance for some z's. I'm keen, just have to check dates when I get back.

Cheers,

I don't want to give too much away about the route publicly -- however L&L you won't have far to drive... and it will involve some twisties.

I've just had the weekends of the 22/11/2003 and 06/12/2003 locked down for a couple of data centre relocations which would be out for me sorry..

I'm really looking forward to the drive actually! And to meeting y'all of course!

Bump.

L&L's birthday is the 12th of December and he's keen to show us round his neck of the woods.

Any more takers/thoughts on dates.
