I had a good day! Was a really, really nice drive. Whoever chose the meet spots a huge thumbs up to you. Was an absolutely awesome change.

I didn't really get to catch up with too many people, and I lost my scarf (shattered!) but overall, had a really good day and a huge thanks to the organisers!

PS. To whoever "Daniel" is, make sure you get onto VIC ROADS about that problem, eh. :P

shame more people didn't go check out the dam wall at maroondah, i guess you all missed out, but what was the point of having a meet in a gravel carpark at a dam, when noone even bothered to check out the sites, shame shame! We should have gone to sugar loaf. ;)

I guess contact either Greerz or Jonni for some video footage.

That was a good cruise. Thumbs up to the organisers! I decided to head home after Maroondah because Damo was going home and my car was drinking water at a rapid rate. Unfortunately it's getting towed to the mechanics either today or tomorrow :(
