Well I had a great time cruising, Thanks to Karl and John and the usual people for planning it all everything went smoothly with no incidents. Weather was great (even though I'm sunburnt). Looking forward to seeing more photos... I didn't take any myself.

Yeah I was there... Just finished the work christmas party and thought I'd join in on the convoy on the way back... That was my own mini-meeting spot.

Great photos, people. I'll put mine up at some stage but I've got the camera battery in the charger now. efgiar, lol at photo 12, and check out the bogan in 11! And John, that third photo looks awesome, particularily the imposing reflection in the mirror!

The organisers did a spot-on job and there were no behaviour issues (unless Alex's photography counts?

). All my ideas for a Victorian restructure are going to be put on the backburner - this event showed how it should be done. We'll see how things go from here.

I wasn't really expecting to take the Laser (hasn't been washed in probably months, etc) but it was a lot of fun in the end. It only needs the brakes applied for very tight corners so wasn't at a disadvantage next to the Falcons with double the power. That said, it's all been much needed motivation to get the EA rolling again and return to regular cruising.

Today was a credit to both organisers and cruisers. Keep it up guys.

dezza - its a shame it turned out blury but....its hard to take pics and drive at the same time :P...also my passenger was useless didnt know how to take pics...lol

Dezza · 04-12-2005, 11:33 PM

Haha. That's why I didn't take any driving pics. And I was obviously going too fast for your photography in my high-performance EA!

Thanks for that Mick! That EA was hilarious. Surely it had to have been done as a joke.

Maybe if they got rid of the semi-perspex bonnet, the holographic flames, the paint-overspray and changed the interior from the brown with blue inserts to samething a little more tasteful, then it might have the possibility of looking nice. Also those badges on the back look shocking, particularily the Tickford badge on the reversing light.

Well, I guess we'll let you off, just this once.

What a great cruise! Cheers to all of the organisers, especially Karl for making it so good. The cruise route was well chosen and the locations were good as well. Behaviour was exceptional, this is the way it should be. On a personal note, I want to take the opportunity to thank Karl and Scott for fixing my car. I thought my idle problem was something major but Karl found the problem within 10 seconds of me opening the bonnet. It now runs like a dream. Thanks guys!

For the whole day I racked up 482km at an average of 10.4l/100k so I'm pretty happy with that. I've got a few pictures that I'll post later, but they're similar to ones that have already been posted.

Bring on GOR '06
