please read the updated thread... in http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...showtopic=20260

since there is only 3 cars from NSW going down, I think we should leave fairly early. I suggest we meet at the sutton forest services (past mittagong) at 7am, grab yum yum and be gone by 7:15. Then maybe a stop at yass for fuel, do the slog thru the road works ( apporox 180kms), stop at albury for lunch, then power on to melbourne.

only side note (time dependent) would be a stop off to brown brothers wines in milliwa (about 20mins off the freeway), this is an optional bit and may not happen as time might not be on our side.

if you want to meet earlier, put it down, i'm happy to leave earlier, but I need notice :)

stfu all in the bin :D

any1 else bringing a rav4 :( wanna be my twin...dont wanna rock up 2 the toyota being the only rav4 ROFL

Hmm, perhaps if M_M let me 'borrow' one of their many Toyotas, i would :P

but i can't see that happening ;)

Evo

I've tried, don't bother :P

FYI: http://www.weatherzone.com.au/long-range-f...n/vic/melbourne - why don't I like the look of this :|

just a reminder for those driving from Brissy via Syd and might be joining the SYD convoy, there are places to stay at mine which are not far off the beaten track. If your in, PM me plz

FYI, my mobile number is 0414186682 for the Melbourne guys if they wanna track the progress from Sydney to Melbourne anytime on friday :)

just a reminder for the QLD'ers, if your passing thru Sydney and need a place to crash O/N, my door is open :)

My opinion is if we can reserve a table of X amount and reserve all the parking spots inside that would be pretty sweet...anyways just throwing an idea plz don't kill me for that! :-D LOL

/stabby stabby

nar, sounds like a plan. BTW, i'll be wining the best car entry for the show and shine with tat's car after last years poor effort (2nd, what a load of pish!)

SHOT GUN! M_M's car with the camera.

the low down:

meet at the twin servos, drive up the mountains till leura. as we are coming out of wentworth falls, we'll move into the left lane and get ready to turn before a rail bridge,

you can download the route here http://members.iinet.net.au/~linuxuser191/ - Download the BM Cruise.pdf file

I'll also have copies on the day to distribute

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?

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

http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/inde...showtopic=20585 - new official thread, post close this and pin the thread admins :)

all questions should be directed to the above ^^

i'm in

I'm guessing the QLD group will stay at the F1 they stayed in for the annual meet in Sydney, or near by (my place).

I suggest the twin servos past Mittagong (Marulan) for a meeting place for the Gongers, Briso's and New South Welshmen. Time 8am for a 8:30 leave?

FYI, there are road works from Gundagai to Albury (approx 180km), speed is set at 80, so this will be a slow part for us. See below:

http://maps.google.com.au/maps?f=d&sou....073425&z=9

My understanding is its freeway on the VIC side of the border, so it should be fast from there on in.

Suggestions for breaks on the trip for those leaving Sydney Friday morning:

1: Wentworthville F1, 6am Sharp or earlier depending on how people feel

2: Twin Servos at Marulan ETA: 8am

3: Gundagai - drive into the town and park on the main road, ETA: 11AM

4: Chiltern - there is a off-freeway parking bay for a stretch of the legs, ETA:2:30PM....due to the road works

5: Seymour - somewhere in town, ETA: 4:30PM

6: Melbourne - to the accommodation, ETA: 6PM

any more suggestions, please feel free to add them or we can run with this :)

night time just adds a greater element of death and you miss all the views.

I would suggest 2-3 groups, depending on you driving style
