[Whitey1212]

So can anyone who knows the route put up a working google maps link? Even if you tinyurl it, maybe the forum can't understand the google maps urls.

[69.NIX]

there will be a guide handed out on the day (maps and stop points will be highlighted)

i'll make sure there is enough to go round.

i'll post a rough copy up once its all complete (COB Thursday....that means around 10pm :P) in a PDF format

[h3ctic]

whats this route like guys?

is it a hilly drive? a coasting drive? a lot of turns? or a straight out into the horizon?

[Armstrong]

well cappus can represent the 4x4

i'll on the other hand represent the old classic rolla hahhaah :P

i just hope it doesnt rain

[69.NIX]

i just hope it doesnt rain

....on that rain note, i've been keeping atune to sundays forecast, and so far it isn't too bad, but there maybe showers.

do we want to risk it or save it till after Easter?

[Whitey1212]

Risk it, if it rains, big deal, just close your window :P

[cuppas]

and hope my 2t of metal and plastic stays on course haha

[Armstrong]

nah...if it still rains come along

I recon things should get better in 2 days time ;)

[h3ctic]

a little rain shouldnt be a problem. we'll just have to take photos from the comfort of the front seat.

[h3ctic]

oh and how strictly toyota is this? i have a few mates that wouldnt mind coming a long but they drive like honda's n such.

is that a problem?
