MT LINDESAY CRUISE

Sun 27th April 2008

WHAT

Travel from Nerang to Beaudesert via the Nerang-Beaudesert Road (freaky hey!) then head south, stop at Rathdowney for morning tea and then continue on through Mt Lindesay. Across the border (in to the land of the weirdos), east towards Kyogle then on to Murwillumbah. Lunch break at Tumblegum then head back via the M1 to Skilled Stadium at Robina to say our good-byes.

This is an absolutely awesome mix of roads; has everything from a few nice straight stretches, a fair sprinkle of fast twisty bits and a bit of tight slow goat-track-like roads through the hippy country - but provides a good opportunity to soak up the awesome scenery. (And no Kimbo we will not be stopping in Nimbin)

THE FINE PRINT

In order for every body to have a good time, a few rules have been implemented. Failure to abide by these rules will ensure you are not invited to future events held by FordXR6Turbo.com.

The reasons for these rules are:

  • Safety – We don’t want to put any of our members, and the general public in any danger.
  • Public Perception – We do not want the Ford XR6 Turbo community to face the same ridicule and stereotypes other car communities face.

The rules are simple:

  • Obey all laws whilst on the cruise; this means no speeding, no overtaking over double lines etc... Any breaches will be reported to the local police.
  • There is a designated cruise leader who will lead the way and set the correct pace for all cruise members.
  • Use the Buddy system; always make sure you can see the car behind you. This will give people behind you an indication on where to turn and to make sure nobody gets lost or left behind.
  • CB Radio’s; if you don’t have one, follow the maps and directions given out. If you do have one, please limit chatter during the twisty parts of the cruise. This will allow the cruise leader to relay information about road conditions, upcoming obstacles, etc. efficiently.
  • By attending this cruise you agree not to hold FordXR6Turbo.com, it’s Administrators, Moderators, Cruise Organisers, or Owners responsible/liable for any damage and/or grief sustained (simply; if you stuff up it’s your fault, not ours).

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask before the cruise.

Great stuff. I've been hanging for a cruise!!

My preference is either 6th April or 13th April. Either one of those and I'm there.

Cheers,

Haha, I only harassed you last night, damn your the man Tab! So efficient!

I'm keen, I've got 11 family members out from England that month, and I'm not taking any time off so weekends are going to be all 'family stuff'!

That said, I'm still in, cruise is more important!
