These pics was taken at our first bush walk, didn't take photos of those big lizards, well i did but i had the photos it took were out of focus so you can't see the lizards.

[chicaboo]

All I see is a bunch of red crosses... :(

[chicaboo]

That's better, but it's not quite 56k death I was hoping for!
Make em bigger! DO IT DO IT...

[Tublade]

i'll post the bigger files up tonite, then hello 56k killer, mwah

[twilightprotege]

no 56k killers! please!!!

maybe post the small pic, then a link to the larger pic?

[Red Frog]

that bushwalk looks absolutely beautiful! i work in a bushland education centre and occassionally get the chance to take the bushwalks where the centre is located....but in comparison, that river (in the photos) among the rocks is breathtaking! i will have to head there on my trip to QLD in june!! :)

[chicaboo]

It's ok, hopefully some of the other guys will put up some more photos from the creak and rainforest walk (AND THE GIANT LIZARDS!).
Leigh if you appreciate bushwalks and waterfalls, we could organise a walk at these places plus the natural bridge (which I think puts the stuff at Tamorine to shame).
There's also a big waterfall at Warrick, that would really make for a big cruise since it takes 2 hours to get there from Brisvegas... OH MY GOODNESS!

Looking forward to some more piccies please,
Gav.

[MitchEG]

hey there

Great day on saturday, i really enjoyed it. Right up till i just about got run off the road by a commodore apparently not posessing mirrors on the way home! arrghh, i hate those things! Anyway, looking forward to the next one whenever that will be. I've got some pics to post...anywhere i can upload these to post em? thats what ive got to do to show them right...? new to this forum bizness i am.

[Tublade]

you need to up load the pics online to another site like photobucket.com or something, after you've done that you need to put on your post {img}web page where it is{/img} but use [] instead of {} but on that site it shows how to do it anyway. you'll just need to copy the links under the pics you post on that site and paste the link in the reply box.

[MitchEG]

Ok, here are the pics, hope theyre not too big. A little but red car biased too! If anyone wants a bigger one, just send me a message

looks like nate had to sell his shoes for petrol....

fair amount of foreigners - looks good (colours)

leigh, what was the place we went to that was in NSW, but had to start in QLD, and took aaages to get to?? (you know what i'm talking about - i know it... wasn't lamington was it?)

[Nate]

yeah thanks steph for taking my hat and my sunny's ... now i look like a stoner squinting into the sun!!!

and as for shoes ... im acutally going to buy a new pair today :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[boostedbatman]

There seems to be an apparent lack of BAs without Dwayne. On a good note it still seems that you all were overrun by "Team Grey" yippee. Nate where are your pics??
What was the "surprise"??
It seems taht all involved had a great day.
I am thinking of looking into a Maleny mountains cruise for when the Bat starts to roll again for those interested, but I am going to save that one for after the June festivities.
Keep the pics coming guys
Gav I am sure you will manage a good write up of the day

[twilightprotege]

for those curious, i FINALLY experienced brake fade coming down the hill from mt tamborine. was it about 10 minutes down the hill? anyway, whatever it was, my back brakes were smokin' :D

(you know what i'm talking about - i know it... wasn't lamington was it?) yep it was lamington national park - the really skinny rd that dad drove up? (binna burra entrance (http://www.binnaburralodge.com.au/pg10.shtml)) with the treetop walk and the ladder with the lookout? and u chased a bush turkey around for a bit? that place was awesome!! i'd have to say that would rate as one of the most beautiful places i've ever been to (and i have been overseas...). i wanna stay at that hotel (binna burra lodge) up there with those beautiful sweeping views of the valley :) also would kill to get a job at the enviro education centre up there. actually, it's not very far from mt tamborine at all!

and before james had even posted anything about nate and his bare feet, i was looking thru the photos thinking "you know, i don't think nate even OWNS a pair of shoes! everytime i can remember seeing him, he's been sans shoes!!" hehe ;)

[boostedbatman]

for those curious, i FINALLY experienced brake fade coming down the hill from mt tamborine. was it about 10 minutes down the hill? anyway, whatever it was, my back brakes were smokin' :DWoo Hoo the man is not invinceable, What pads are you using with the new brake setup Andy, maybe a set of twin pistons for the rears are soon for the cards (more $$$ on Brakes lol)

[twilightprotege]

pads - stock series 6 rx7 pads. so obviously with better pads, "what's brake fade?"

nah i'll leave the rear as is. i have lucas pads in there at the moment and they do fine, but for track work i'd get track pads

[Tublade]

everyone with 56k, will hate me now, mwah

[boostedbatman]

everyone with 56k, will hate me now, mwah
Andy with 56k, will hate me now, mwah
Whats the deal anyway I thought you did a lot of searching AT WORK???

[chicaboo]

Pete: I put the writeup in the original organised thread.

Can't wait to see some more piccies and 56k death!

Q: What's Black and grey and red all over?

[Nate]

Q: What's Black and grey and red all over?

[platypus]

was lamington!!! yay, lets do that next :p

[Snert]

Did I see a possible 2nd member to my huge recruiting drive for Team Blue

[chicaboo]

Yeah that was the Hobbit in his Mazda6 classic sedan.
Still not seen any big goanna piccies yet. Looks like I will have to buy a camera again after I sell the gay auto...

[twilightprotege]

camera? i just wanna experience brake fade again :D :D :D

[chicaboo]

Yeah I sold the big giant black camera after the hinterland cruise last year to pay for the trip to Tasvegas mon. It was annoying to carry around being so farken huge...

[323GUY]

sounds like you guys had a good time. i also had a fun day trying to find some new tyres for my car. ended up getting a set with 90% tred for $ 200 which was pretty good i think.

[boostedbatman]

camera? i just wanna experience brake fade again :D :D :D
I will swap brakes with you............
P.s. dont rub it in
Did I see a possible 2nd member to my huge recruiting drive for Team BlueI can hear the violins for the minority :o
Just remember we are all the same on the inside
Pete: I put the writeup in the original organised thread.Found it, nice writeup

All said and done the pics of the day look great
'cept too much hue, I like monochrome

[chicaboo]

Yeah it must've been a bit hard to find at first amidst the huge flurry of praises for the wonderfullnessnous of the day...

[Tublade]

i thought there was more ppl that brought there camera's? wheres are there pics?

[twilightprotege]

[QuicKSilveR]

When was this - there are no dates. I would have come

[Tublade]

the cruise was on the 2nd of april, the dates are on the pics

[platypus]

and its been on the forums for over a month now

[Zoomer]

Hey all

Sorry I haven't gotten pics up sooner. I've been busy actually working at work and had other stuff to keep me busy and stressed after.

I'm not gonna torture any 56k people any more so I have put the pics in my OzMazdaClub gallery and people can look at them there. I have a shot of one of the Goannas.

http://www.ozmazdaclub.com/forums/photogallery/thumbnails.php?album=129

It was a bit of a shame that the carpark was closed off but a bit after all you guys left, Luke and I went for another quick drive and The Spit was absoulutly packed and goin off! There were cars everywhere!

Thanks so much for the great weekend, I'm tired from driving now! Have to work up some energy before the next cruise!

CYA

Zoomer

[platypus]

[boostedbatman]

Great pics there Adam the day seems to be well captured by all with the snapper in hand
I cant wait till the car is finished so I can get out and rough it with you guys once more

[Nate]

[chicaboo]

Fantastic pics Adam, now that's 56k death material!

Respcta,
Gav.

[Zoomer]

Thanks!

I thought it would be better to put them in the gallery and not in a post. That way you can only open the ones you wanna see.

Zoomer

[MitchEG]
