We had a meet and greet not too long ago which I thought was a great idea ... maybe there should be another one on the cards.

Cruising around Sydney can be painful though .... suggest a Sunday morning while everyone is still asleep though :hihi:

Make it for Sunday 6 May. I'll be in Sydney staying at a hotel near the domestic terminal. You can have your cruise, then meet for Doughnuts and Coffee at KK Mascot. I'll be on foot. So no trying to race me.

Just a thought :

hAHAH Bluedriver I havent had time to scratch myself since last time.But it was a really nice meet. Everyone was friendly and keen to show each other their cars.The turnout far exceeded my expectations with around 30 odd cars showing and all au's...very nice. A meet is probably better for a Saturday and quick meet like last time. It allowed me to get Nick to kids soccer and members to go enjoy the rest of what was a lovely day. May is a busy time so I will leave the organising this time to one of you legends.

Im from the south coast, but I'd make the trek up to Sydney if theres going to be a cruise as I have not being on one organised by this Forum. Anything before the 7th May would be good, as my enlistment date is the next day...

Saturdays for me are wipeouts, 4 soccer games between me and my 2 boys.

HLC no worries to me, many of us Sat is too busy and you work some Sundays.
Why don't you get this going to work with your Sundays off ?

Maybe do a meet at KK Liverpool if thinking about heading South.
At least on a Sunday morning ... you won't get the idiots ... I hope.
Although they are fun to watch.

I have one idea that may solve the problem of not being free on certain weekend days. Why don't we do something for ANZAC day. At WSID, the Wicked Wednesday event runs from 2pm (according to the WSID website) so we could meet at a 10am ANZAC day march and then cruise on up to WSID. Those who want to race can race but everyone can still hang out and catch up/meet other guys from the forum.

Except for the motorbike cops hiding along the old road now .... grrr.\

Could do Putty Rd to Singleton ... and then back to Newy ... and then the coastal road all the way back.
