What time will you guys be in Lorne 'til.
I have a party to go to in Geelong around 8pm. I still reckon I will go, but I jus don't wanna go back to Melb & then back to Geelong.

That attendance list needs updating on the first page as Rod & Rupe aren't going.

mrpayner · 28-01-2005, 05:45 PM

Yeh.. i don't think that Justin [TX3_Realm] has been able to get online for a few days now.. But I'll be meeting him at Ballarat. I'm guessing that for the BBQ we will be buying meat and stuff at Geelong so avoid nasty surprises when cooking..

Hope to see you there asterix..

Asterix · 28-01-2005, 06:10 PM

So is there a finalisation of numbers for this cruise?

mrpayner · 28-01-2005, 09:19 PM

IF!!! anyone is interested in coming.. the first page has been updated..

Cheers
Adam.

mrpayner · 30-01-2005, 04:13 PM

The cruz got off to a bit of a bad start with it raining at the first two meet points (Ballarat and Melbourne) but the weather seem to subside for the Geelong meet point. After a descent chat to each other and watch a 90-year-old man drive into a bollard (small pole) and then reverse into the car behind him, lol, we decided to get the ball rolling and start on our cruz. When leaving Geelong we unfortunately had a minor accident between three of our own car.

We regroup in Torque where we had lunch and calm down a little then headed onto Lorn via the Great Ocean Road.

In Lorn we found a nice car park on the beach (which we found out later that you had to get a ticket to park there lol, but the ticket officer was kool about it) and waited for Oracle to catch up to the pack.

On the way to Apollo bay some of us opened it up a bit for a nice bit of cruzing on the winding twisty’s. On arriving in Apollo bay we say god grace us with blue skys and sun (which just about had every one asleep on the grass lol). At Apollo bay we went down to the beach to get our feet wet and to write a massive ‘fordlaser.com’ in the sand (I would like to thank every on for their help with that, at lest we didn’t spell it wrong, lol). We then decided to partake in the last leg of our cruz back to Geelong through the forests and mountains.

This was probably the best part of the cruz where everyone got to safely open it up around the twists but seen my car cut the engine and loss brakes and power steering coming around a corners at a bit of speed. We then go to open it up on a dead straight which seen every one trying to reach their top speed on a safe road.

On our wayback to Geelong we only had one little hiccup with wheel nut not dun up tight but was fixt with the help of a wheelbrace (make this be a lesson to every one, to always cheek your wheel nuts after they have been put back on by a tyre joint!)

When arriving back in Geelong we all grab some hungry Jacks the departed our sperate ways.

In conclusion we had 20 cars and took in some great view, some great road, and spent it with some great people. And that’s what the Great Ocean Road cruz was all about!

I would just like to thank spekle_laser, Oracle, and woodsy for there help in organising and helping out of the day and to everyone who attended!

I hope you all enjoyed it

A great day of cruzin' on Saturday!
To all the Vic AGT members who piked, you missed an awesome time.

Likewise Mr Payner... good to meet you too.

I had that much fun, I nearly went back on Sunday.

Surprisingly, the report from melb was that the weather was crappy all day - not the case in the GOR district.

Kudo's must go to the blue laser for the surprising power it had for a normally aspirated 1.8.
Oracle got the land speed record for the day. :twisted:
You bandit!
(I hate my governor)

All in all was a great day & a top bunch of guys (& girls).

Thanks to everyone.

pr1mo · 31-01-2005, 10:57 PM
